Harvest Dates Mid-October 2019
Sites Ried 1000-Eimer-Berg, a sub-vineyard of Burgberg in Spitz
Fermentation Vessels Stainless Steel
Production Details Most vines were cultivated on steep stone terraces. Grapes were hand-picked in mid-October at an average yield of 5,500 kg/ha, then macerated, temperature-controlled fermented and matured in stainless-steel tanks before bottling. The sheet prints acidity as 7.3%, without clarifying the analytical basis or whether the symbol is a typographical error; therefore no canonical total-acidity claim is proposed. It recommends serving the wine well chilled at approximately 9°C.
