Riesling Sekt Brut Nature, traditionelle Flaschengärung 2019

Wine Description for Riesling Sekt Brut Nature Traditional Bottle Fermentation 2019 by Peter Jakob Kühn

Colour & Appearance

Luminous golden yellow with a vibrant, fine-beaded mousse that unfolds evenly and persistently in the glass. A sparkling wine that radiates energy and precision from the very first glance.

Nose

The bouquet is of striking complexity and depth. Ripe pineapple and mango meet a fresh hint of ginger, which lends the whole vivacity. Beneath these weave bright floral aromas and a fascinating herbal world of verbena, anise, fennel and liquorice – an aromatic tapestry that unmistakably bears the signature of the Kühn estate.

Palate

Dry, precise and yet suffused with juicy, invigorating fruit fullness. The Brut Nature dosage allows the Riesling to speak in its purest form: clear, taut, with a fine phenolic grip that imparts texture and length. A sparkling wine that immediately demands another sip.

Finish

Long, mineral-driven and sustained by refreshing acidity. The exotic fruit play concludes elegantly, leaving behind a dry, appetite-whetting freshness.

Terroir & Origin

The grapes hail from the higher-altitude vineyard sites of Peter Jakob Kühn in the Rheingau – one of the world’s most traditional Riesling terroirs. The elevation lends the sparkling wine its characteristic freshness and aromatic complexity.

Grape Variety & Vinification

Pure Riesling, traditionally crafted using the bottle fermentation method. With an impressive 30 months on the lees, the sparkling wine develops that creamy structure and depth which elevates it far beyond the aperitif horizon. No dosage added – Brut Nature in its most uncompromising form.

Food Pairing Suggestions

Versatile and food-friendly: outstanding with grilled mango wedges with purslane and dandelion salad in light honey dressing, with elegant puff pastry tart with anchovies or with festive poultry terrine with cinnamon, apple wedges and toasted almonds.

Special Characteristics

A sparkling wine that consistently translates the Kühn estate’s creed – depth, precision and authenticity – into the world of sparkling wines. It is rare to see Riesling character and sparkling wine elegance united so convincingly. An insider’s tip that deserves attention.
