WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Hagn Grüner Veltliner Classic is produced using 100% Grüner Veltliner grapes. The winemaking process involves fermentation in stainless steel tanks, a technique employed to maintain the grape's pure expression and freshness. Following fermentation, the wine is aged on its lees for three months, which can add subtle complexity and texture. The grapes are hand-harvested, suggesting a focus on quality selection. The wine is then bottled as a dry white wine.
