The interaction of the great wealth of experience with the craftsmanship, the special ambition as well as the constant striving to belong to the best distinguishes the winemakers and makes the winery unique. 

No mass, but class - Winzerkeller Sommerach

In Sommerach, we also know that quality grows in the vineyard. That is the law. But that's not all, of course, and so the quality work continues in the cellar, where the grapes undergo gentle processing and are gently vinified separately according to grape variety, vineyard location and degree of ripeness. In some cases, individual vineyards are even harvested in multiple selections and vinified separately. For the basis of great wines:

•   only highly ripe and aromatic grapes are used.
• Each plot is individually evaluated according to its optimal level of ripeness and only then harvested accordingly.
• Not the mass but the quality is the first priority for each family of winemakers of the Winzerkeller.
