Vinification |
The Kalkspitz is a sparkling wine made in the Méthode ancestrale, also known as “Pétillant naturel” or “Pet Nat”. This is the most natural method of producing sparkling wine with the least intervention but lots of instinct from the winemaker. Here, the fermenting must, which still contains unfermented sugar is bottled and sealed with a crown cap. The moment of bottling is absolutely decisive, because the residual sugar content determines the level of carbonation as the fermentation process continues in the bottle. This wine will not be degorged will thus retain a slight cloudiness. Because lees and acidity will preserve the Kalkspitz, it is particularly suitable for storage. |
