On the finish, this wine from the Rheinhessen wine-growing region finally captivates with lovely length. Once again, hints of dried apricot appear. In the aftertaste, mineral notes from the loess and limestone-dominated soils are added. Vinification of the J. Trautwein Burgundy Cuvée The balanced Burgundy Cuvée from Germany is a cuvée vinified from the grape varieties Grauburgunder (Pinot Gris) and Weißburgunder (Pinot Blanc). The grapes grow under optimal conditions in Rheinhessen. Here, the vines sink their roots deep into soils of limestone and loess. After hand-picking, the grapes are brought to the winery as quickly as possible. There they are sorted and gently crushed. Fermentation then takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. Following fermentation, the wine is aged for several months on the fine lees before finally being bottled.
