WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Von Winning Pinot Noir An Den Achtmorgen 2020 is made from 100% Pinot Noir grapes harvested by hand. Fermentation occurs naturally and spontaneously in oak barrels, utilizing indigenous yeasts without artificial cooling. The wine then undergoes extended lees contact before aging in barriques, with 50% of the barrels being new. The estate practices organic viticulture, avoiding chemical inputs in the vineyard.
