Wine Description
Northwest of Weissenkirchen. This vineyard is planted with the oldest vines - more than 60 years old. With small bunches yielding small grapes, the overall yield is naturally low. The wines are fermented and matured in wooden barrels.
The setting of this old vineyard does not allow for the use of tractors.
Pure handwork only.
