Vinification
The harvest is done manually, ensuring a selection of healthy grapes. The grapes are destemmed immediately after harvesting to avoid harsh tannins in the wine and undergo pulp fermentation to maximize the extraction of color, tannins, and aromas from the grape skins. The wine is fermented at a high temperature (between 25 and 30°C) to extract as many tannins and powerful aromas as possible from the skins. The wine is aged in French barriques for 12 months.

About Wijnkasteel Haksberg
Wijnkasteel Haksberg is an extensive domain of woodland and parkland in the Hageland, with a small castle from the 19th century, a wine terrace, rolling vineyards and good Belgian wine. The wines have recently won awards in the low countries and are therefore better known. The name of the wines always refers to (the Latin name of) a bird that has been spotted on the domain.
The vineyard has traditional grape varieties such as Dornfelder, Auxerrois, Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. They work according to the principle of integrated crop protection.
