Vinification of the Self-employed Herzdame Red Wine from Weingut Hiss The grapes are cultivated on the sun-exposed slate and loamy soils of the vineyard, where the vines ripen under optimal weather conditions. The climate ensures an even ripening process and a balanced supply of sun and fresh air, enriching the grapes with aromatic diversity. The harvest takes place in the early morning hours to preserve freshness and fruit intensity. After careful selection, the grapes are destemmed and crushed. Fermentation begins at controlled temperatures between 24 and 28 °C, promoting the extraction of fruit and phenolic substances. During this time, the yeast permeates the mash, developing the desired flavor nuances and ensuring structured tannin formation. After fermentation, the wine is separated through a gentle pressing process and continues to mature in stainless steel tanks and large wooden barrels with a slow aging process. This imparts the wine with its powerful texture and complex aromas. The long barrel aging adds depth and a harmonious balance between fruit, spice, and mineral notes. Final adjustments are made through controlled bottle aging to fully unleash the wine's expressive potential. The result is a characterful red wine that reflects both the power of the grape variety and the finesse of the winemaker.
