Vinification of Blaufränkisch from Winery Martin Reinfeld

The grapes for the Blaufränkisch - Winery Martin Reinfeld come from carefully tended vineyards growing on sparse slate and loess soils. This soil structure imparts a fine mineral character and structure to the berries. The cultivation is carried out with great attention to the terroir to highlight the characteristic intensity of Blaufränkisch.

The harvest is done by hand to select only the best and fully ripe grapes. After harvesting, the berries undergo gentle destemming to preserve the full aroma. The mash fermentation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks over several weeks. During this process, the skins are repeatedly submerged to optimally extract color and aromatic compounds.

Subsequently, the wine matures for a harmonious rounded finish in high-quality barrique barrels made of French oak. This maturation imparts an elegant wood note to the wine without dominating its freshness and fruitiness. Aging on fine lees supports the development of a creamy texture. The result is a powerful and complex Blaufränkisch that impresses with its precision and expressiveness in the glass.
