Wehlener Sonnenuhr Auslese *** (White 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 so that the wine's multi-faceted fruity aromas could develop perfectly. Subsequently, the wine was carefully matured on its lees for an extended period in cask.

      Grape varieties :

      Riesling
