Vinification of the winery Dönnhoff Roxheimer Höllenpfad Riesling Erste Lage

The balanced Roxheimer Höllenpfad Riesling Erste Lage from Germany is a single varietal wine, pressed from the Riesling grape variety. In the Nahe region, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of sandstone. Roxheimer Höllenpfad Riesling Erste Lage is an Old World wine in the best sense of the word, as this German wine breathes an extraordinary European charm that clearly underlines the success of Old World wines. The fact that Riesling grapes thrive under the influence of a rather cool climate also has a very high influence on the ripening of the vintage. This manifests itself, among other things, in particularly long and uniform grapes and rather moderate alcohol content in the wine. After the grape harvest, the grapes reach the press house as quickly as possible. Here they are selected and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks and large wood at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months on the fine lees before the wine is finally drawn into bottles.
