WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Ahrweiler Caspar Spätburgunder Alte Reben 2019 is produced by Weingut Deutzerhof. Key winemaking techniques include fermentation in barriques and maturation in a combination of first and second-fill barriques, with wines aged separately by vineyard parcel. A notable step in the process is the selection of barrels for the 'Caspar' bottling, which occurs in July after the completion of biological acid degradation. The winery's philosophy centers on allowing natural processes and time to influence the wine's development, with a commitment to sustainability demonstrated by its Fair'n Green certification.
