Wine I enjoyed

 

Hughes and Hughes Dornfelder 2021

The response to my previous note about input from you prompted some good replies. It seems there is some interest but maybe not in this format, possibly a facebook site with member-only access would be better?

We do have a response from Andrew Bradley about a wine type I've never tried: Dornfelder.

"This wine was part of the Mitchell Harris Taste of Tasmania Dinner a few weeks ago. Absolutely loved it then and bought some for my cellar. Beautiful colour, fruity and an easy mid week wine. Not what I would have expected from Tassie but worth a try"

Dornfelder grapes are a high-yielding rot-resistant Hybrid cross from Germany, first created in 1953 and now the second commonest red grape grown in Germany. Three or four small wineries in Tasmania now grow the grape with a small volume grown in Bright.
