Vinification
The grapes of the Souvignier Gris grow on the southern slopes below the wine village of Kaltern on the South Tyrolean Wine Road. The grapes mature at an altitude of 320-400 metres, on well-drained soil and mineral-rich glacial moraines. In October, the grapes of the Souvignier Gris reach the ideal degree of ripeness for the harvest. The grapes are carefully picked by hand. After a short maceration period, the selected Souvignier Gris grapes are gently pressed. The fermentation takes place in steel at a temperature of 17°C

About Weingut Ritterhof
Enclosed in the middle of mountains and vineyards along the South Tyrolean wine route lies the wine village of Kaltern, and it is exactly here, on the wine route No. 1, that the Ritterhof winery is located. The small winery is managed with dedication by the Roner family from Tramin. Traditions have been passed on from generation to generation, combined with harmony with nature and the latest technology. These elements form the basis for the production of fruity white and full-bodied red wines.
