Vinification of the winery Bürklin Wolf Forster Riesling

The basis for the balanced Forster Riesling from Germany are grapes from the Riesling grape variety. The grapes grow under optimal conditions in the Palatinate region. Here, the vines dig their roots deep into soils of clay and sand. Forster Riesling is an Old World wine through and through, as this German wine exudes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underscores the success of Old World wines. After the grapes are harvested, they are immediately taken to the winery. Here they are selected and carefully crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and small wood at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months on the fine lees before the wine is finally drawn off.
