A term commonly used in Germany for a wine with a pale to light red colour. According to German wine law, these are the wines Badisch Rotgold(Baden), Schieler(Saxony) and Schillerwein(Württemberg). According to EU law, these are protected traditional terms. These wines correspond to a quality wine (PDO). The designation may also be used for a quality sparkling wine or quality semi-sparkling wine with added carbon dioxide if these products are made from grapes grown in certain regions.

Serious sources on the internet are rare - and Wine lexicon from wein.plus is one such source. When researching for my articles, I regularly consult the wein.plus encyclopaedia. There I get reliable and detailed information.
