Wine list | Muller Thurgau |
The Müller Thurgau Athesis DOC of the Kettmeir winery is vinified in white with a short maceration on peels at low temperatures to optimize the perfume extraction. It follows a soft press of the grapes and the fermentation in steel tanks kept between 14-16°C. After the first pouring the wine matures on yeasts until spring time when the product is bottled after the aging, which also takes place in bottles. The grapes used belong to the local Müller Thurgau vines used at 100% for the production of this wine.
