WINE MAKING PROCESS
This Spätburgunder is crafted through a process that begins with predominantly hand-harvested grapes. The winemaking involves fermentation on the skins, a technique that enhances color, tannins, and flavor extraction. Post-fermentation, the wine undergoes aging in old wooden barrels, allowing for gradual development and integration of flavors without overt oak influence. The cooperative's approach emphasizes traditional methods, a connection to nature, and sustainable practices, aiming to capture the essence of the Baden region in each bottle.
