100% Riesling
Vineyard Management
Spur pruning and the removal of unnecessary shoots left only two to three best-developed shoots per spur. Two weeks before harvest, leaves were removed between the bunches within the canopy, taking care that no grapes were exposed to direct sun in the process. This resulted in improved aeration in the bunch zone, ensuring the retention of flavours in the berries.
Harvest
The grapes were picked by hand and, where vineyard spacing allows, by harvesting machine
Vinification
The grapes are crushed and the wine is cool fermented to capture the flintiness of the varietal.
