Vinification of Reiterpfad Riesling dry 1.5L Magnum GG from Weingut Dr. Bürklin-Wolf

The grapes for the Reiterpfad Riesling dry 1.5L Magnum GG from Weingut Dr. Bürklin-Wolf grow in a renowned site with optimal south-facing slopes on multi-layered slate soils. These soils impart the wine its distinctive minerality and precise structure. Reiterpfad is among the limestone and slate plots with excellent water permeability, enabling the roots to penetrate deeply into the soil and develop particularly complex aromas.

1. The selective hand-harvesting is carried out in multiple passes to harvest only fully ripe berries. 2. Immediately after harvest, the grapes are transferred to the cool must to preserve freshness and aromatic intensity. 3. The gentle pressing takes place in pneumatic presses to extract only pure juice without bitter components. 4. The must is clarified to remove fermented particles before the alcoholic fermentation begins.

The fermentation occurs at low temperatures of 14 to 16 °C in large stainless steel tanks. This preserves the fruity aromatics and mineral freshness. After fermentation, the wine matures on fine lees for several months, contributing significantly to its creamy texture and complexity. Prior to bottling, a controlled aging process ensures that the typical character traits are expressed clearly and impressively through gentle elaboration. The 1.5-liter magnum format supports slow aging and finely tuned harmony, making this Grand Cru a true masterpiece.
