Vinification of the “Auf der Grenze” Pinot Gris from Bernhart

This wine clearly focuses on a single grape variety, namely Pinot Gris. For this exceptionally well-balanced varietal wine from Bernhart, only immaculate grapes were used. The vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow in the Pfalz on soils of limestone and marl. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled.
