WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Künstler Riesling Trocken is produced from 100% hand-harvested Riesling grapes. Following gentle pressing, the grapes undergo alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel vats at controlled temperatures. The wine is then aged on its lees for approximately six months or in stainless steel tanks before bottling. The winery emphasizes environmentally friendly viticulture, avoiding chemical herbicides and promoting biodiversity, aligning with their philosophy of creating intense, sustainable, and elegant wines.
