Production Details The vines are largely Lyra-trained, with yield regulated through pruning, thinning and grape division. The official factsheet states three weeks of maceration/fermentation, approximately 24 months in 300 L first- and second-fill Austrian and Burgundian oak, unfiltered bottling, and at least 12 months of bottle maturation. It describes the wine as dry, gives an elevation range of 265–345 m and a serving range of 15–18°C. The live producer page differs, describing more than two years in Austrian Manhartsberg oak followed by at least six months in bottle, and broadly says fruit is selected especially from Dechant and Käferberg, whereas the vintage factsheet assigns the grapes to Käferberg.
