Vinification of the Grauburgunder from Weingut Kirsten-Liebieg

The grapes for the Grauburgunder - Weingut Kirsten-Liebieg come from carefully tended vineyards with distinctive loess and limestone soils, which determine the wine’s special minerality. 1. The vines grow on well-ventilated slopes that provide optimal hours of sunshine. 2. The grapes are hand-picked with strict selection in the cool morning hours to preserve their freshness. 3. After gentle pressing, the musts undergo a slow, controlled, temperature-regulated fermentation. This process usually takes place in stainless steel tanks to preserve the fruity aromas and promote the wine’s purity. 4. The wine then matures for several months on the fine lees, which gives it a creamy texture and additional complexity. During maturation, the wine is regularly bâtonnaged, which intensifies the delicate aromas and strengthens the structure. The result is a Grauburgunder with a well-balanced body, elegant acidity, and a persistent aromatic profile.
