Vinification of the Michel Schneider Dornfelder

The basis for the balanced Dornfelder from the Palatinate are grapes from the grape variety Dornfelder. After harvesting, the grapes immediately reach the winery. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging on the fine lees for several months before the wine is finally bottled.
