The grapes were harvested through careful hand-selection in September. Fermentation took place in open tanks and wooden vats. This was followed by pressing approximately 21 days later.

This wine was sealed with a glass stopper. The residual sugar is 1.0 grammes per litre and acidity is 5.0 grammes per litre.

30% of the grapes came from Kittmannsberg from 11 year old vines planted in humus-loess soils. The vineyard is east-facing and is 250 metres above sea level. 70% of the grapes came from Hasel from young and 20 year old vines planted in loess sils with medium-textured clay. The vineyard is east-facing.
