Vinification of the Pfaffmann Portugieser Weißherbst from Weingut Wageck-Pfaffmann

The foundation of this delicate Weißherbst is the traditional Portugieser grape variety. In the heart of the sun-drenched Palatinate, the grapes for the Pfaffmann Portugieser Weißherbst from Weingut Wageck-Pfaffmann thrive on mineral soils. Here every berry develops its full aroma. This careful cultivation and constant monitoring in the vineyard ensure optimal physiological ripeness.

1. The harvest takes place in the early morning hours. This preserves the intense fruit aroma as well as the required freshness.
2. Immediately after selective hand-picking, the grapes are gently destemmed and softly pressed.
3. The must is left to rest briefly and benefits from the short contact time with the grape skins – just long enough for the characteristic salmon color to develop.
4. The must is clarified and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks so that all the delicate fruit aromas are preserved.

During fermentation, gentle, cool fermentation is the main focus. This method not only secures the pronounced bouquet, but also makes the texture soft and balanced. Malolactic fermentation is deliberately avoided in order to retain the crisp character. Maturation exclusively in stainless steel emphasizes the outstanding freshness and clarity. The result is a brilliant rosé wine that seduces you with every drop.
