Old vineyards planted with Yellow Muscat, Golden Muscat and Lemon Muscat: All of them varietals that boast with unique and concentrated flavour in their skins - a natural invitation to be macerated. Over the years we have elaborated several methods of maceration for a gentle extraction, just like treating a fragile leaf of green tea. In 2023 a power-shot of schist-driven Chenin Blanc boost the mineral corset of the aromatic Muscat-Triplet. A concept to continue exploring.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMaking of: Grapes are hand harvested and left to macerate. Some of the skins are\u003cbr\u003eleft in contact with the juice for up to 4 months, making Christian’s only orange\u003cbr\u003ewine. Pressed with the power of a handshake, the hyper-aromatic juice ages in\u003cbr\u003elarge barrel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MORE Natural Wine","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54109034414348,"sku":"MORE-4851-SKU","price":81.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0221\/6407\/8692\/files\/Himmel-II-magnum.png?v=1743173889","url":"https:\/\/morenaturalwine.com\/en-it\/products\/christian-tschida-himmel-auf-erden-ii-maischevergoren-2023-magnum","provider":"MORE Natural Wine","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
