Production of the Grand Rosé in GP - Geldermann Sekt

The Grand Rosé in GP - Geldermann Sekt is made from carefully selected base wines from the Baden growing region. Baden offers a warm, sun-drenched climate shaped by the influences of the Upper Rhine Graben. These conditions allow for slow, even ripening, promoting intense aromas and clear structure. Different soil types, including loess, limestone, and gravelly terraces, lend the grape varieties individual facets and form the basis for a multi-layered cuvée.

After harvesting, the grapes are transported swiftly to the winery. Gentle pressing preserves the freshness and finesse of the berries. Only the purest must fractions are used for the subsequent base wine. Fermentation takes place under temperature control in stainless steel tanks to preserve the lively fruit and clear aromas of strawberry, raspberry, and red currant. Chardonnay and Chenin Blanc emphasize the elegant core of the base wine, while Pinot Noir and Spätburgunder shape the characteristic rosé color and delicate tannin structures.

Following blending, the cuvée is transformed into a characterful sparkling wine through traditional bottle fermentation. The second fermentation in the bottle creates particularly fine, dense bubbles and a creamy mouthfeel. During its time aging on the lees, the sparkling wine develops its delicate brioche note, subtle toasted nuances, and harmonious integration of the acidity.

The wine is matured with great respect for the Geldermann house style. The cellar masters place emphasis on elegance, precision, and a finely balanced interplay between fruit and structure. The dosage contributes a delicate fruit sweetness that complements the pronounced freshness without overshadowing the dry character. The result is a rosé sparkling wine that excels both as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to food.
