WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Allendorf Riesling Feinherb is produced using 100% Riesling grapes harvested from the Rheingau region. The winemaking process emphasizes preserving the grape's natural character, with fermentation typically occurring in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. This technique helps to maintain the wine's fresh aromas and vibrant fruit profile. The 'Feinherb' designation indicates an off-dry style, achieved through careful management of residual sugar.
