Origin

This steep 17 hectare (42 acres) southwest-facing site features moderately deep soil comprised of eroded clayey slate with a high proportion of fine earth. Wines from the Graacher Domprobst are elegant and piquant, possessing fine structure and minerally finishes.

Vinification

The grapes were harvested in October, gently crushed, and given several hours of skin contact to extract aroma and minerals. The must fermented slowly and naturally at low temperatures 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.
