Subheading: Vinification of the Fleckvieh Mild - Winery Metzger

The grapes are cultivated on the sun-kissed hills of the vineyard, where they reach perfect maturity in a warm climate. The vines grow in clay soil with calcareous components that structure the wine and enrich it with minerality. The harvest is done exclusively by hand to ensure that only the best grapes reach the cellar. The harvesting takes place at the optimal ripeness stage, once the fruit has fully developed its aromatic intensity. The winemakers rely on gentle hand-harvesting to preserve delicate aromas and to select the perfect berries. Vinification occurs in modern stainless steel tanks to preserve freshness and fruitiness. Fermentation runs at a controlled temperature of about 16-18 °C to enhance aromatic complexity. During racking, the wine remains in contact with the grape skins only for a short time, ensuring that the fine aromas and freshness are optimally retained. The subsequent biological climate-controlled aging in stainless steel provides a fine balance between fruit and minerality. This results in an elegant wine with lively freshness and subtly integrated sweetness, perfecting its flavor in the bottle.
