What We Say 2020 Bernkasteler Badstube Riesling Auslese* Grünkapsel
What the Winery Says
Markus Molitor
Our grapes originate from the best portions of the Bernkasteler Badstube. The vines grow on slate rich in fine particulate matter and with good water retention. Bernkasteler Badstube wines are very crisp, fruit-driven, and lively, with sound acidity and excellent aging potential.
The grapes were harvested in October. 100% healthy berries were gently crushed, and given several hours of skin contact to extract aroma and minerals. The must fermented spontaneously and slowly at low temperature so that the complex fruit aroma could develop perfectly. Subsequently, the wine was carefully matured on its lees in wooden barrels for a long time.
