The prevailing continental climate with warm summers and cool nights promotes intensive aroma development. Under these conditions, the fruit attains impressive concentration and freshness. Mineral-influenced, partly volcanic soils intensify the wine’s expressiveness and provide the finished product with a clear, well-defined structure. The pomegranates are harvested selectively so that only fully aromatic fruit is used. After opening and deseeding, the pulp is gently processed. Temperature-controlled fermentation in stainless steel preserves the pure pomegranate aromas and prevents oxidative influence. The deliberate avoidance of wood emphasizes the fruit-driven style and allows every nuance of the pomegranate to come through unadulterated. After fermentation, the wine continues to mature in stainless steel tanks. This consolidates the interplay of fruit sweetness, acidity, and alcoholic strength.
