WINE MAKING PROCESS
The grapes are harvested from selected vineyards in Rheinhessen. After gentle pressing, the must undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fresh, primary fruit characteristics of the Grauburgunder grape. The wine is aged on its fine lees for a short period to add subtle texture and roundness before being filtered and bottled early to maintain its vibrant, youthful energy.
