Riesling Qualitatswein Trocken

VARIETALS
Riesling

NOTES
FARMING: Biodynamic

SOIL: Slate and Quartz

VINEYARD: The plots are in Lieser and Bernkastel-Kues, planted with vines of up to 50 years of age. The slope is only 30-50% incline

VINIFICATION: Grapes are collected in small crates to ensure they reach the cellar undamaged. Pressing in closed tank lasts about 1-2 hours, with an average 12-hour sedimentation period occurring before moving to the fermenter. Vinification takes place in stainless steel tanks between 16° to 18° C. Initially, the fermentation is temperature controlled, and the entire process lasts about 6 to 8 weeks. The wine is kept on fine lees until spring.
