Vinification of the Zehnthof Sulzfelder Pinot Noir

This wine clearly focuses on one grape variety, Pinot Noir. Only immaculate grape material was harvested for this wonderfully balanced varietal wine from Zehnthof. In Franconia, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of limestone. After the hand harvest, the grapes immediately reach the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Then fermentation takes place in small wood at controlled temperatures. After the end of fermentation, the Sulzfelder Pinot Noir is aged for several months in oak barrels.
