Grauburgunder Brut - out of stock

A vintage champagne following the tradition of bottle fermentation. Grauburgunder Brut is an exceptional fruity wine with a fine sparkling mousseux (frothy bubbly). Its golden yellow color and subtle nutty and spicy flavors dominate this extraordinary German champagne. Its mousseux is kind of delicate, but has at the same time an ample body which ends creamy toffee. It is superb in its finesse and elegance.

Silvaner Brut - out of stock

A great specialty of modern culture in German champagne preparation. It is traditionally fermented in the bottle and rotated by hand. In taste, it is clearly influenced by the Franconian limestone and yet has a fine apricot aroma which combines sensuality, pleasure, and freshness.
