On the steep slopes, the Grauer Burgunder grapes are still harvested by hand. Bunch by bunch is inspected to determine whether it is suitable for this top-quality wine. The yield is modest, but of such exceptional quality. It's no wonder that Bischel's harvest is praised throughout Rheinhessen. The grapes are transported in small crates like a prince. Too many clusters together would cause excessive damage, which is undesirable. The bunches are gently pressed. The juice is fermented partly in stainless steel tanks and partly in wooden barrels. The golden-yellow juice matures for several months in Bischel's beautiful wine cellars.
This wine is a true German delight to drink; what refinement this wine possesses, starting from the moment the cap is opened. A beautiful bouquet of ripe apples, pears, and a hint of orange. Pouring this Bischel Grauer Burgunder truly unleashes its full potential, releasing aromas of exotic fruit and a touch of red apple. The palate is rich and full-bodied, a true Grauer Burgunder! Delicious, with plenty of white fruit and beautiful nuances of herbs, orange, and citrus. It pairs wonderfully with light meat dishes or veal, but also with spicy pasta and arugula.
