WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Geyerhof Ried Sprinzenberg Riesling 2023 is produced using whole-cluster pressed grapes, fermented with natural yeast in steel tanks. The wine then undergoes aging on its lees in tank until May of the following year. The grapes are hand-harvested, with meticulous selection. The winery's approach prioritizes minimal intervention, with a strong emphasis on biodynamic viticulture and holistic estate management.
