Production of the Grauburgunder dry by Dr. R.H. Myburg

The grapes for the Grauburgunder dry - Dr. R.H. Myburg come from Rheinhessen, one of Germany’s most diverse wine-growing regions. Gentle hills, expansive vineyards and a balanced climate shape the region. Warm days and cool nights encourage the slow, even ripening of the Grauburgunder grapes.

The soils consist primarily of loess, limestone and, in places, sandy deposits. This combination produces wines with clear fruit, fine minerality and lively tension. The vines find ideal conditions here for aromatic, expressive grapes.

The harvest is carried out selectively so that only ripe, aromatic grapes reach the cellar. Gentle processing is the priority. The grapes are transferred quickly to the press so that freshness and varietal character are fully preserved. Careful pressing produces clear, fruit-driven must.

Vinification in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks highlights the pure fruit of the Grauburgunder. Cool fermentation preserves the delicate aromas of nectarine, peach and citrus. Avoiding oak ageing maintains the crystalline style that characterises this wine. The character remains straightforward, focused and modern in interpretation.

Dr. R.H. Myburg’s cellar style places emphasis on clarity, precision and drinking pleasure. The focus is on balance between freshness, fruit and elegant structure. The aim is a Grauburgunder that authentically expresses its origin without excessive opulence, instead offering fine finesse and immediate appeal.
