in the vineyard : The grapes come from the oldest vineyard block on Delheim planted back n 1985. The maturity of the vineyards with their deep roots
produces exceptional quality grapes. Located on the foot slopes in the Simonsberg mountain in a pocket where conditions are optimal for the growth of noble rot, we are privileged enough to produce an award-winning noble late harvest wine.

about the harvest: The grapes are picked on numerous occasions. Each parcel is sorted to make sure that only the top-quality grapes are selected.

in the cellar : These beauties are then a whole bunch pressed and fermented in French oak barrels for the duration of 9 months.
