Production Details Vineyards are farmed sustainably and increasingly organically without insecticides or herbicides. Grapes are hand-picked and only completely healthy fruit is processed. After short skin contact, the wine undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation, maturation in stainless steel, and some time on fine lees before bottling. Site-wide context from the producer's vineyard dossier: Ried Kollmitz extends from 249 to 361 metres a.s.l., has slopes up to 51%, and changes from loess-dominant lower ground to paragneiss in the upper sector; these are vineyard-wide ranges, not parcel-specific measurements for the 2025 wine.

After short skin contact, the wine undergoes temperature-controlled fermentation, maturation in stainless steel, and some time on fine lees before bottling. The sheet's general 2024 vintage narrative describes an exceptionally early harvest on 3 September, but does not establish that all Kollmitz grapes were picked that day.

Vegan Yes
Vegetarian Yes
Production Details The grapes were hand-picked, with an approximate yield of 7,500 kg/ha, and precisely selected so that only healthy fruit was processed. After short skin contact, the wine underwent controlled fermentation, stainless-steel-tank maturation and some fine-lees ageing before bottling. The vineyard reaches approximately 130 metres above the Danube; this is relative height, not elevation above sea level. The suggested serving temperature is approximately 9°C. The sheet prints acidity as 6.2% without a g/L or acid-equivalent basis, so that figure is not normalized into total_acidity_gl.
