WINE MAKING PROCESS
The winemaking process at Weingut Urbanihof for this Riesling focuses on preserving the grape's natural characteristics. Grapes are gently pressed, and fermentation is carefully controlled, typically in stainless steel tanks. This method aims to retain the wine's freshness, vibrant fruit notes, and crisp acidity. The winery's philosophy emphasizes minimal intervention, allowing the quality of the organically grown fruit and the Wagram terroir to be the primary drivers of the wine's profile. Sustainability is a core tenet, with a commitment to organic farming practices and maintaining soil health.
