The Riesling is planted at an altitude of approximately 300 meters, on well-drained soils of weathered granite. The higher vineyards benefit from cooling conditions, allowing the grapes to retain their fresh acidity and aromatic character.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe grapes come from a German Riesling clone. The wine is fermented entirely in stainless steel tanks. Fermentation is stopped as soon as the right balance between acidity, fruit sugars and alcohol is reached. This preserves a small amount of natural residual sugar, without the wine becoming heavy or sweet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAwards\/distinctions \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e🏆 Old Mutual Trophy – Niche White – The Real McCoy Riesling 2021\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFun fact \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe name The Real McCoy has a special story.
