WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Pratsch Grüner Veltliner 2023 is produced using grapes from organically farmed vineyards. The harvest is done by hand when the grapes reach full ripeness. Fermentation takes place in steel tanks at low temperatures, often utilizing spontaneous fermentation with special yeasts. The wine benefits from extended contact with its lees, contributing to its texture and complexity. Aging is typically conducted in steel tanks. Minimal sulfur is added during the winemaking process. The winery also employs vegan-friendly fining agents, such as pea and potato starch.
