Winemaking · Classic line

The destemmer plucks the berries off rather than threshing them, and a hose pump moves the mash into the press without crushing it.

The destemmer plucks the berries off rather than threshing them, and a hose pump moves the mash into the press without crushing it.

Instead of sulphuring the must, we work with must yeasts. The whole mash passes through a tube heat exchanger to below 15 °C. That cool, it can stand for four to twelve hours. After pressing we stir up the must again and again for six hours.

Fining is done with pure potato protein: our cellar works one hundred percent vegan. We don't use flotation, but let everything settle in the cold room instead.

Fermentation is done with a single neutral sparkling wine yeast, which we prepare at the start of harvest and then pass on from tank to tank. It's neutral so you taste the vineyard, not the yeast.

The wine stays on the gross lees until about December, is then racked and fined and lies on the fine lees until March. Bottling is at the end of March, beginning of April. There is no malolactic fermentation. So the malic acid stays, and with it the freshness.
