VINIFICATION: This special wine is produced in leap years only and is dedicated to Vaneja’s birthday- the February 29th.
\nAt the end of September, we cut short canes of Gew\u00fcrztraminer with grapes and hung them over the cellar, where the grapes are slowly drying, losing water, concentrating sugar, acid and many minerals. On February 29, we crushed the Gew\u00fcrztraminer grapes and producing a very concentrated must. The fermentation was then carried out for about 3 months at a controlled temperature.<\/p>\n
