Tasting profile
Structure: light-bodied, low tannin, high acidity, off-dry
German Riesling Sekt — sparkling wine from a variety whose acidity suits the method exceptionally well. Green apple, lime and white peach with the floral lift Riesling always brings, over a fine bead and bracing acidity. One thing worth knowing: on sparkling wine "Trocken" is not the same as Brut. It sits noticeably higher on the sweetness scale, so expect a fruity, gently sweet impression rather than a bone-dry one — the acidity is what keeps it refreshing. Serve very cold and drink it young.
