Additional Info to the Wine
The grapes are harvested mostly in morning hours when it‘s still cool outside. Retaining the freshness is one of the main aims for this wine. After a short rest of a couple of hours on skins to extract the aroma, the wine is gently pressed, settled, racked and brought to fermentation in the naturally cool cellar. The cellar has a long tradtion and was dug into the earth by the ancestors of Stefan and Norbert Rosner.
