WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Wieninger Pinot Noir Select 2019 begins with hand-harvested grapes from biodynamically farmed vineyards. Fermentation is conducted at controlled temperatures to maintain the purity of the fruit. Following fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in barrique barrels, a process that contributes to its structure and complexity. The producer's commitment to biodynamic practices is central to their winemaking philosophy, aiming to capture the essence of the Viennese terroir.
