WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Jean Stodden Spätburgunder JS 2021 is produced using hand-picked and strictly selected Spätburgunder grapes. Fermentation occurs on the skins for 14 days at controlled temperatures, without stems. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for 16 months in barriques, during which biological acid degradation takes place. The producer's approach focuses on minimal intervention to allow the vineyard's characteristics to be expressed.
