Cellar
Pinot Blanc – classic, authentic, traditional
For over 100 years, outstanding Pinot varieties have flourished at Kränzelhof – ideal conditions for this noble grape. The vinification process is precise and gentle: selective hand-harvesting, whole-cluster pressing, and partial cold maceration to extract aromas and phenolics from the skins, enhancing complexity and structure. About 50% of the wine undergoes fermentation on the skins. Aged for 12 months on the fine lees in used barriques.
