Product notes
Slope: up to 25% Burg Ravensburg wines are produced from the grapes of vines rooted in the mineral-rich, warm gypsum marl soils encircling the castle. The estate’s qualitatively outstanding vineyards and favorable topographical profile yield wines full of character that appeal with their fine mineral tones, ripe fruit, and long finish.
Production notes
The grapes are gently harvested by hand, carefully sorted, and as whole berries, fermented in small batches. The goal is to produce long-lasting Spätburgunder wines with clear-cut fruit, elegance, and a fine tannic structure. Malolactic fermentation takes place in used barrique casks in which the wines mature for 8-12 months.
