Vinification of the winery Manz Niersteiner Pettenthal Riesling This elegant white wine from Germany is vinified from the Riesling grape variety. In Rheinhessen, the vines that produce the grapes for this wine grow on soils of slate. The fact that the Riesling grapes thrive under the influence of a rather cool climate also has a very high influence on the ripening of the grapes. This manifests itself, among other things, in particularly long and uniform grapes and rather moderate alcohol content in the wine. After the hand harvest, the grapes are quickly taken to the press house. Here they are sorted and carefully crushed. Then fermentation takes place in large wood at controlled temperatures. Vinification is followed by aging for several months in oak barrels. Food recommendation for the Niersteiner Pettenthal Riesling by Weingut Manz Experience this white wine from Germany ideally well chilled at 8 - 10°C as a companion to fruity endive salad, stir-fried vegetables with fish or omelet with salmon and fennel.
