Vinification of Rotwild Dornfelder by Peter Mertes

The basis for the elegant Rotwild Dornfelder from Germany is grapes of the Dornfelder variety. After harvesting, the grapes are quickly brought to the press house. There they are selected and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine matures for several months on the fine lees before it is finally bottled. After the wine is finished, Rotwild Dornfelder is carefully harmonized.
