WINE MAKING PROCESS
Weingut Dreissigacker employs organic viticulture practices, with vineyards certified since 2007. The winemaking process often involves spontaneous fermentation, utilizing natural yeasts to foster complexity. Following fermentation, the wines undergo extended aging on fine lees, typically for a minimum of 18 months for single-varietal Rieslings. This technique is intended to enhance the wine's structure and develop its character. The estate's approach prioritizes minimal intervention, allowing the expression of the vineyard's terroir.
