In Hawaiian, the name means \"Merry Christmas\". The label immediately features a former 1940s-style Christmas pin-up. The song MELE KALIKIMAKA became famous through an early recording by Bing Crosby and as film music in L.A. Confidential. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Mele Kalikimaka by Markus Schneider displays an opulent bouquet of forest fruits, amarena cherries, and plums with cinnamon, a hint of chocolate and vanilla, as well as a touch of licorice. On the palate, it is powerful and full of tension, velvety with soft tannins and wonderfully balanced fruit notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe new vintage of MELE KALIKIMAKA is always available from November 24th during the pre-Christmas season.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMarkus Schneider – Wine Production\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe late-ripening grapes for this red wine by Markus Schneider grow in various vineyard plots between the Vorderpfalz plain and the Haardt mountain range, with barren, very dry soils characterized by gravelly sand and terrace scree. At the right time, ripe, healthy grapes of both varieties are harvested and gently processed in the modern winery. After classic mash fermentation in wooden fermentation vats and a 14-day maceration period, the mash is gently pressed under low pressure and then aged without external intervention in old wooden barrels, 20% of which matured in new wooden barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMele Kalikimaka – a wine and its values\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin Wine from Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowing region Palatinate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Dorsa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14.0% vol.
