The wine region of Jutland
Pioneer Danish wine peninsula with a cool continental climate and long luminous summers — mostly organic viticulture. Solaris is the signature white grape (>60%), a disease-resistant PIWI hybrid: dry and aromatic with intense citrus, exotic fruit, white flower and herbaceous notes akin to NZ Sauvignon, with crisp acidity. Rondo (1964 hybrid) produces fruity and accessible reds with cherry, blackberry and spice, soft tannins — mainly in rosés.
The word of the wine: Reassembly
During the vinification process, a "cap" is formed at the top of the vats with the solid parts (skin, pulp, pips, etc.), which contain tannins and colouring elements. Pumping over consists of emptying the vat from the bottom and pouring the juice back to the top, in order to mix the cap and the juice and to favour the exchange and the extraction. This old technique allows a better exchange between the solid parts and the liquid.
