Spaetburgunder is a speciality of Assmannshausen. The phyllite-rich soil
in the area retains heat and does not hold water, yielding grapes
that are relatively low in number, but that produce the finest-quality
Spaetburgunder. Our grapes are handpicked, and all of our red wines
are produced using traditional mash fermentation, then aged in wooden
barrels. The majority of our wines (98 percent) are dry.
Our white wines, which include White Burgundy, Riesling and the fruity Weissherbst
(Spaetburgunder not fermented with the skin), are matured in high-grade
stainless-steel tanks.
