Vinification of the Bodenständig Spätburgunder in Eichenfass by Winery Hiss

The grapes are cultivated in carefully selected vineyards offering optimal sunlight exposure and well-drained soils. The Mediterranean influence, combined with a protective canopy, ensures good grape development and maximum ripeness. The grapes are harvested early in the morning at perfect ripeness to preserve freshness and aromatic fruit. After manual harvest, a gentle grape reception takes place, during which the grapes are carefully sorted. Vinification begins with controlled must fermentation at moderate temperatures to optimally highlight the fruitiness of the tannins. To deepen the aromas, the must is regularly kept in contact with the skins. The maturation occurs in high-quality oak barrels, which give the wine an elegant vanilla and wood note. The aging lasts for 12 months, during which the wine's complexity increases through regular bâtonnage (batonnage). Before bottling, a filtration ensures the clarity and purity of the wine. The result is a varietal Spätburgunder with full character, fine fruit, and a balanced tannin structure. Careful vinification emphasizes the typical minerality and the deliciousness of the terroir, making this wine a special experience.
