Philosophy
The goal of the Dautel family is to produce individual and typical wines which do reflect the character of the vineyards and the vintage. The basis for the production of these high quality wines is the careful vineyard work close by nature. This includes short pruning, intense canopy management, “green” harvest of surplus grapes and the care and preservation of old vineyards.
The nutrient addition takes place using natural humus which is prepared by themselves. Late and selective hand picking of only full ripe and healthy grapes forms the conclusion of the labour intensive and complex vineyard work.
