The grapes used for this wine come from five different vineyards in the Südsteiermark production area in Sausal. The wines from the different premises are vinified separately and finally blended together. After a short (4 to 8 hours) maceration, the grapes were pressed gently and slowly. Fermented in steel tanks in a temperature-controlled manner at a temperature of 19 to 20 °C. The wine was matured for a few more months on top of the wine lees in steel tanks before final blending.
