With it's various slopes and soil types, Kleine Zalze's vineyards provide each grape variety with the best possible and suitable growing conditions, allowing for maximal expression of varietal character.

Only once the cellar master has identified the full spectrum of components that the harvest has yielded, will he begin to compose the wine. Unique varietal expression is Alastair's main focus.

Vinification Details
The grapes were harvested separately at sugar levels of 22 and 23° from different blocks. After crushing, the grapes were cold macerated for three days before fermentation started. A combination of pump-overs and punch-downs followed to ensure optimum colour and flavour extraction from the skins. The wine matured for 12 months in third and fourth fill French oak barrels before racking.
