Due to its southern exposure and favorable slope, the Sonnenberg, located at 100-150 m above sea level, is one of the preferred sites that benefit from high solar radiation and a favorable microclimate. The soil is a skeletal conglomerate of greywacke to greywacke shale mixed with loess and loess loam. The Pinot Noir grape variety produces powerfully voluminous wines here, which retain a fruity-elegant character due to the stony component of the soil.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Frutiger LT 57 Cn',sans-serif;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Frutiger LT 57 Cn',sans-serif;\"\u003eVinification:\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Frutiger LT 57 Cn',sans-serif;\"\u003eThe hand-picked and selected Pinot Noir grapes were fermented in the mash tank for 17 days.
