STORY BEHIND THIS WINE

Only the best grapes are selected by hand for this special Gewürztraminer. A late harvest allows for a maximum of aroma and complexity. In order to enable the full release of the aromatic substances from the berry skin, the grapes are gently ground and then left to macerate for several hours. The juice is then fermented in modern stainless steel tanks at temperatures of 18 °Celsius. The fermentation was then interrupted when the residual sweetness was optimal by filtering the wine from the yeast.
