WINE MAKING PROCESS
This Riesling is produced by Wine Mechanics using a method that avoids oak during fermentation, emphasizing the grape's natural characteristics. Some wines from the producer may also be fermented with free yeast and without added sulfur, reflecting a hands-off approach. The winery prioritizes working with partner vineyards that adhere to sustainable practices, with a strong preference for organic and biodynamic certifications. The urban winery model in Gothenburg is a distinctive aspect of their production, bringing European-sourced grapes to Sweden for the winemaking process.
