Vinifikation
The grapes always come from the Rondekop vineyards, which are located at 200 to 220 metres above sea level. These vineyards are extremely wind-exposed, resulting in thick-skinned berries that yield highly concentrated juice. The grapes were hand-picked and destemmed but not crushed. The destemmed grapes were cooled to 8°C and ‘cold-soaked’ for 168 hours. Fermentation took place at 25°C, followed by a 30-day maceration on the skins. After malolactic fermentation in stainless steel tanks, the wine was matured for 18 months in 50% new French oak barrels.
