Harvest and Maturing
The grapes for this wine are harvested separately according to variety and origin. The selective harvest of the ripe, healthy grapes is carried out exclusively by hand. In the cellar, the grapes are destemmed and crushed. A short maceration time of a few hours is followed by gentle pressing. The resulting fresh must is naturally clarified by settling (sedimentation). To perserve a maximum of fruitness and freshness the fermentation takes place in stainless steel at low temperature. After fermentation, the young wine is racked off the full yeast and allowed to rest on the fine yeast for around three months. The wine is then clarified/filtered and prepared for bottling.
