WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking journey for this Gewurztraminer begins in the marno clay-limestone soils of Beblenheim, where grapes are traditionally harvested with careful selection at the time of picking. Following the harvest, the wine undergoes vinification using the traditional white wine method, with precise temperature control applied to the clear juice. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months in vats to develop its character and complexity. This is followed by a final maturation period of 1 to 2 months in the bottle within the winery's cellars before release.
