Subheading: Vinification of the off‑dry Gewürztraminer from Weingut Metzger

The grapes for the off‑dry Gewürztraminer from Weingut Metzger are grown in lovingly tended vineyards in the region. The estate focuses on sustainable, nature-oriented cultivation to ensure optimal vine growth. In late autumn, at perfect ripeness, the grapes are harvested by hand in order to obtain fruit of outstanding quality. Hand harvesting guarantees that only the best grapes make it into the cellar.

Vinification begins with a gentle skin-contact fermentation at controlled temperatures. This method optimally extracts the aromatic components and intensifies the bouquet. During fermentation, the wine remains on the fine lees, which increases its complexity and creates a silky texture. Maturation takes place in temperature-controlled stainless-steel tanks as well as partially used oak barrels, which lend the wine depth and dimension. After several months of aging, the wine is bottled, allowing the delicate grape aromas and the floral notes of the Gewürztraminer to fully emerge. The result is a wine with multi-faceted aromatics and pronounced elegance that reflects the complex terroir.
