## Food pairing

The wine's crisp acidity and medium body make it versatile. It can cut through the richness of creamy dishes, complement the subtle flavors of fish and poultry, and stand up to the herbaceous notes in pesto and salads.

## Wine making process

The GB Spätburgunder Rosé Georg Breuer is produced from hand-picked Spätburgunder grapes. Following harvest, the grapes undergo light maceration before fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at controlled temperatures. After fermentation, the wine is matured on its fine lees in stainless steel for a period of a few months. The Georg Breuer estate employs organic and biodynamic farming practices in its vineyards.
