Graf von Bentzel Sturmfeder
Graf von Bentzel Sturmfeder operates in Württemberg, Germany's principal red wine region. The winery focuses on Spätburgunder and Lemberger, the dark-skinned varieties that define the area's continental character. Spätburgunder Trocken represents the core expression—a dry, structured wine typical of the region's cooler sites. The Schozacher Roter Berg Spätburgunder GG Trocken, from a classified vineyard, shows the precision and mineral tension Württemberg's best terroirs can achieve. Lemberger, the regional signature grape, appears in the Schozacher Lemberger Trocken, delivering the variety's characteristic spice and dark fruit in dry form. Both Falstaff and Decanter have rated these wines, reflecting their technical consistency. The portfolio emphasizes dry styles and site-specific bottlings, anchoring the winery in Württemberg's modern approach to Spätburgunder and indigenous varieties.
