Product Type : GERMANY TABLE
2018 was a very warm vintage in Germany which was favourable for red wines in particular. The old vine Dornfelder was harvested in perfect health at moderate brix levels, great physiological ripeness, and great colour. The grapes were cold macerated for several days before being allowed to spontaneously ferment in open top wood vats. Just before the conclusion of alcoholic fermentation, the free run juice was transferred to three neutral French oak Cadus barrels from Burgundy (the press wine was added to the fermentation of the classic Dornfelder). The alcoholic fermentation was completed in barrel. The wine spent 12 months in barrique before being racked off and blended. The three barrels blended together were then returned to their barrels for 6 more months before bottling. The wine was bottled unfined and unfiltered.
