Production Details Fruit from selected Wachau vineyards was selectively harvested by hand; green harvesting was used if necessary, and no sorting tables were used. The sheet records no destemming, skin contact, pneumatic pressing and no carbonic maceration. Fermentation used cultured and natural yeast in glass balloons and 25–100 L stainless-steel tanks, at 22–25 °C for varying durations, without malolactic fermentation. The wine received no bâtonnage, was racked twice, filtered, aged in bottle for one month and released in September. The vineyard sources span 240–350 m and vines aged 20–25 years.
