Site: Our Cuvee "Georg" thrives at 350 m above sea level below the Leuchtenburg ruins on porphyry rock and moraine debris deposits on warm western slopes. This unique location with its deep soil enables us to produce a complex, powerful wine with a very good storage life. Vinification and ageing: The grapes are harvested by hand and brought to the cellar in small containers. After destemming and fermentation in large wooden vats, the wine is aged in French oak barriques (65% new, 35% used wood) for 12 months. Afterwards our Cuvee is stored in barrels for another 6 months and in the bottle for another 6 months before it is sold. Wine deion: On the nose, our Cuvee presents itself fruity, with intense aromas of ripe wild berries (blackberry and redcurrant) as well as elegant spice the Cabernet franc. Powerful and long-lasting on the palate with ripe tannin and fresh acidity, this wine offers an absolute drinking experience. A wine for special moments and very long longevity.
