PRESENT

Sufficient.

The yield is limited by nature and the intended character for the wine, approx. 25 hl/ha.

All vineyards are cultivated by certified organic farming supplemented by very high personal standards regarding the respect to nature and human.

PRESENT grows in the unique block  ’Presenteberg’, situated to south-west, located between Assmannshausen and Lorch with slopes of 70°. The central location inmidst the vineyard gives long-term sunshine, while the slopes are well nurtured by an underground water supply in the rock and an optimum water storage of the red slate stone-

The vines are minimum 25 years old.

The vinification is minimized by the use of natural biological processes and physical transformations. The only additive used is sulphite.

It is a ’lazy vinification process’ where time is the key to achieve taste, harmony, clearness, stability and a great maturation potential. This takes two years time in barrels and at least some further years in the bottle before leaving the cellar for the first time. PRESENT is bottled unfiltered.

PRESENT naturally ferments to dry with nearly no sugar left. The acidity is naturally degraded by a second fermentation to about 5.0 g/l total acidity measured as tartric acid.

The alcohol level derives from nature and the sugar in the grapes. Usually 13,5%vol. (ca. 103° Oechsle).
