WINE MAKING PROCESS
Weingut Obrecht employs biodynamic farming practices in their approximately seven hectares of vineyards in Jenins, focusing on ecological harmony. The soils in the region are characterized by limestone and slate. While specific details regarding fermentation vessels, temperatures, yeast types, and aging for the 2020 vintage are not readily available, the winery's commitment to biodynamics suggests a focus on natural processes. For other vintages of 'Trocla Nera' or similar wines from old vines, aging in selected barriques for one year has been noted.
