Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (Gold Capsule)

Description :

Vineyard Site: This steep 45 hectare south-southwest-facing site features soil composed of stony, grey weathered Devonian slate.
Vinification: The grapes were harvested and stringently sorted by hand. The berries were gently crushed and macerated for several hours on their aroma- and mineral-rich skins. The must fermented slowly and spontaneously at low temperatures in large wooden barrels. The wine then rests on the lees for an extended period of time.
