Red and white berries, kumquat and grapefruit, alongside yellow and green stone fruits. Interspersed are notes of patisserie, bread crust and lees, underpinned by wet pebbles, oyster shells and nutshells.
Palate
A delicate fruit sweetness despite zero dosage – berries, stone fruits and ripe citrus. Round and juicy yet linear, with pronounced autolytic notes of brioche and shortbread.
Character
Elegant and charming, light-bodied yet of fascinating complexity and depth – a dry sparkling wine with a clear, precise profile.
Pairing
Oysters and other seafood, delicate patisserie bites or light poultry with a citrus accent.
Notes
Traditional bottle fermentation with extended lees ageing and a complete absence of dosage – a Brut Nature that draws its maturity entirely from the fruit itself. Andres & Mugler were awarded Best Sekt Collection in Germany by Eichelmann in 2021.
Tasting note
Colour & appearance
Pale golden yellow with a fine, lively mousse.
Nose
Finely aromatic: red and white berries, kumquat and grapefruit, alongside yellow and green stone fruit. Overlaid with notes of patisserie, bread crust and yeast, underpinned by wet pebble, oyster and nut shells – a nose of unusual depth for such a young sparkling wine.
Palate
Despite zero dosage, the ripeness of the fruit carries the wine: berries, stone fruit and ripe citrus with a fine, natural sweetness. Elegant and charming, linear and precise, yet also round and succulent. Distinct autolytic notes of brioche and shortbread provide contour and length.
Finish
Dry, clear and persistent, with salty pebbly nuances and a fine, creamy yeast texture.
Terroir & origin
Palatinate: The grapes come from vineyards around Deidesheim, Ruppertsberg and Maikammer – including the steep, sandy Deidesheimer Mäushöhle. The duo has farmed their plots biodynamically since 2010, having been certified organic as early as 2006.
Grape variety & vinification
Spätburgunder (Pinot Noir) and Schwarzriesling (Pinot Meunier), refined through traditional bottle fermentation. Andres & Mugler use only about two thirds of the pressed must; lees ageing ranges – depending on the cuvée – from 12 to 48 months. Disgorged with zero dosage (Brut Nature).
Food recommendations
A versatile food-pairing sparkling wine: excellent with oysters and sashimi, with pan-fried pike-perch, duck breast or mushroom dishes. Also a lovely match with mature hard cheese and shortbread biscuits.
Special features
Michael Andres and Steffen Mugler have worked together since 1989 – in 2021, Eichelmann named their collection the best sparkling wine collection in Germany. This Blanc de Noir bears their signature: light-bodied, dry in style, yet of fascinating complexity – proof that biodynamic viticulture and meticulous bottle fermentation can elevate German Sekt to the highest level.
