100% handpicking, two times sorting in vineyards and one sorting table, 50% destemmed.
Vinification: Perfect, fully ripened grapes from Ried Pellingen are selected by hand from mid-October to early November. Old vines and minimal yields. A portion of the grapes is destemmed and left on the skins for 10–12 hours of maceration. The leisurely fermentation in 500-litre acacia barrels with ambient yeasts gives the wine its special style & character. Batonage (yeast stirring) is employed in a focussed manner to develop the wine’s full potential. It can take up to 18–24 months before the wine – according to our taste – is ready for bottling). Minimal movement, gravity feed & lots of time! Limited!
Pairings

Asian cuisine in general as well as Schnitzel.
