Vinification of the Glühvieh Weiß from Weingut Metzger

The grapes for the Glühvieh Weiß are cultivated in the vineyard under optimal conditions. Weingut Metzger emphasizes sustainable and gentle management that promotes the vines and maximizes grape quality. The plants grow in well-draining, mineral-rich soils that impart an exciting complexity to the grapes. Shortly before ripening, a careful hand harvest takes place, selecting only fully ripe grapes. The grapes undergo controlled fermentation at cool temperatures to preserve freshness and aroma. The fermentation period is precisely managed to achieve optimal depth. After the completion of alcoholic fermentation, a targeted aging on the lees follows, increasing complexity and adding fullness to the wine.
