Vinification of the Weißburgunder W from Weingut Josef Leitz

The balanced Weißburgunder W from Germany is a single-varietal wine made from the Weißburgunder grape variety.

There they are sorted and gently crushed. This is followed by fermentation in large wooden casks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is aged for several months in oak barrels.
