Vinification of the Winzerhof Stahl Steinmauer Chenin Blanc

The basis for the balanced Steinmauer Chenin Blanc from Franconia are grapes from the grape variety Chenin Blanc. The fact that the Chenin Blanc grapes thrive under the influence of a rather cool climate also has a considerable influence on the ripening of the grapes. This manifests itself, among other things, in particularly long and uniform grapes and rather moderate alcohol content in the wine. When perfectly ripe, the grapes for Steinmauer Chenin Blanc are harvested exclusively by hand without the help of coarse and less selective full harvesters. After the harvest, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully broken up. Fermentation then takes place in small wood at controlled temperatures. Fermentation is followed by aging for several months in oak barrels.
