At the right time, ripe, healthy grapes of both varieties are harvested and gently processed in the modern winery. After classic mash fermentation in wooden fermentation vats and a maceration period of 14 days, the mash is gently pressed under low pressure and then aged without external intervention in multi-year wooden barrels; 20% matured in new wooden barrels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMele Kalikimaka – a wine and its values\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin Wine from Germany\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrowing region Palatinate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGrape varieties Merlot, Cabernet Dorsa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e14.0% vol. alcohol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5.4 g\/l acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e7.2 g\/l residual sugar \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Markus Schneider","offers":[{"title":"1.5 liters","offer_id":56363721261382,"sku":"008WMS5515","price":52.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0998\/4960\/1350\/files\/markus-schneider-mele-kalikimaka-magnum-2021.jpg?v=1779189987","url":"https:\/\/genussland.de\/en\/products\/markus-schneider-mele-kalikimaka-magnum-2021","provider":"genussland","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
