Production Details The two different components were treated completely differently; the young blocks being put to the test by fermenting in extreme conditions with higher turbidity natural fermentation and a very cold fermentation temperature. The older riesling blocks were, however, fermented clean, inoculated with yeast and kept at a moderate temperature. The two components were blended together and left on the lees for a further 4 months before bottling.
