Wine Description

For this Sekt we selected healthy beautiful Riesling grapes from our stony soil vinyards. The wine was 1 year in a steel tank before we mixed it with fermenting Riesling juice from the next harvest. This juice was some hours on the skin before we pressed it. After botteling the Sekt made a second fermentation in the bottle and was 35 month on the yeasts before we disgourge it with zero dosage. The result is a fine, lightly fruity sparkling wine with fine perlage, creamy taste and a long finish. This is why it is a perfect aperitif as well as a good compagnion to food like fish pate and smoked fish mousse.
