Harvest Notes
The grapes were harvested by hand in the second harvest in the Sauberg vineyard.
Vinification
Part of the grapes was fermented open on the skins with subsequent straining of the juice and ageing in small, used barrel (225L) and stainless steel tank. The other part of the grapes was pressed and fermented spontaneously in new barrel (225L). Both barrels underwent malolactic fermentation and were stirred weekly (batonnage) until February. Further maturation in barrel until September 2022, then drawn from lees storage into steel tank and stored until manual, unfiltered bottling in February 2022.
Food Pairing
Roasted calf's liver on mashed potatoes, grilled summer vegetables (peppers, tomatoes, aubergines and courgettes) on polenta; scampi
