Riesling Sekt Brut 2022

Wine Description for Riesling Sekt Brut 2022 by Andres & Mugler

Colour & Appearance

Radiant golden yellow with lively green reflections. The perlage displays itself fine and persistent – a sign of careful méthode champenoise production and good quality.

Nose

Expressive and multi-layered: vineyard peach and citrus fruits meet orange zest and delicate elderflower. Particularly appealing is the herbal dimension with wild mint, verbena and lemon balm. Beneath lies a pronounced mineral structure – the hallmark of Andres & Mugler.

Palate

Lively and precise. The fruit from the nose continues on the palate, carried by a refreshing, finely-bubbled carbonation. A saline finish underscores the mineral component and lends the sparkling wine drinkability and elegance. The balance between fruit, acidity and minerality is exemplary.

Finish

Medium-length, fresh and with a pleasant herbal spice. The minerality lingers and leaves a clean, pure impression.

Terroir & Origin

From the Palatinate, a region renowned for its fruit-forward, mineral Rieslings. Andres & Mugler masterfully understand how to bring the terroir to the fore in their sparkling wines – with a focus on precision and authenticity.

Grape Variety & Vinification

100% Riesling, traditionally produced. The moderate alcohol content of 12.5% Vol. and the Brut dosage allow the grape variety and terroir to take centre stage. A grower’s sparkling wine that combines craftsmanship with fair pricing.

Food Pairing Recommendations

Excellent as an aperitif. Pairs elegantly with oysters, scallops, sushi or goat’s cheese. Also an excellent choice with smoked trout or asparagus salad with herb vinaigrette.

Special Features

A grower’s sparkling wine with impressive value for money. Complex enough for discerning connoisseurs, accessible enough for spontaneous moments. Demonstrates that German sparkling wine production has reached world-class level.
