Winemaking
We pick our grapes relatively early (22-23 Brix). The Riesling juice is fermented at cold temperatures for 30 days and then aged in stainless steel tanks. We leave our dry wines sur lie post fermentation for five months and we stir the lees once or twice a week. All our Rieslings are fermented with native yeasts. We use no oak and no malolactic on this wine – it’s as pure and unmanipulated as it gets.
