WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Peter Jakob Kühn Riesling Sekt Brut Nature 2019 is produced using the traditional bottle fermentation method. Grapes are hand-picked from higher vineyard sites. Following primary fermentation, a secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle, a process that lasts for 30 months while the wine ages on its lees. This extended aging contributes to the wine's complexity and texture. The vineyard management follows biodynamic practices.
