WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Jamek Ried Frauengarten Grüner Veltliner Federspiel is produced using hand-harvested grapes from the Ried Frauengarten vineyard. Fermentation occurs in stainless steel tanks with native yeasts, continuing until naturally halted. Post-fermentation, the wine is aged in large wooden casks. This process is guided by the winery's philosophy of producing dry, natural white wines that reflect the Wachau terroir.
