Tiefenbrunner Feldmarschall von Fenner
Wine Description
This beautifully crafted wine is made from 100% Müller Thurgau grown at the incredible altitude of 3,280 feet above sea level, in one of the highest vineyards in Europe. The grapes are harvested in October and fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel tanks. In order to obtain greater structure and more complex flavors, the wine remains on the lees until February.
