Vinification of the Riesling from Leon Gold Winery

The basis for the elegant Riesling from Württemberg are grapes from the Riesling grape variety. In Württemberg, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of sandstone and marl. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
