Harvest
High temperatures in spring enabled a record-breaking early start of the growing season. A moderately warm summer with adequate rainfall was followed by a superb fall with plenty of sunshine. This resulted in ideal ripeness of grapes. 2012 vintage delivers extremely fruity, harmonious and well balanced wines.
Fermentation
Gentle pressing, strict purification of musts, fermentation with selected yeasts under temperature controlled conditions, storage in stainless steel tanks until bottling.
Tasting Notes
The wine is full flavored with both pear and citrus fruit aromas. Stimulating on the palate, as well fresh and fruity it has a nice sweetness balanced with the typical crisp Riesling acidity and a long- lasting finish.
