Harvest Harvesting is only done by hand with strictly grape selection, only the best fruit is used for our top wines.
Vinification We use only healthy grapes without any Botrytis. For Roter Veltliner we use only crushing-method without skin contact. Pressing is done immediately after arrival of grapes at winery by pneumatic press. The juice can settle then for about 12 hours, only the clear juice is used for fermentation which is done by our own yeast selection in temperature controlled stainless steel tanks.
Ageing Around 5 weeks later it is racked with full yeast into large acacia barrels where we allow the wine to mature until bottling time, usually somewhere in beginning of August.
