Pinot Grigio Mousseux alkoholfrei - Weingut Lukas Kesselring

The Pinot Grigio Mousseux non-alcoholic - Weingut Lukas Kesselring sparkles in the glass with a bright straw-yellow hue, delicate silver reflections and a finely bubbling mousse. On the nose, it reveals a clear, fruit-driven bouquet with notes of crisp green apple, juicy Williams pear and invigorating grapefruit zest. A hint of white blossoms, delicate herbal spice and fresh lime zest adds further tension and elegance to the aroma.

On the palate, the sparkling wine is lively, linear and precise. The fine, persistent bubbles carry the fresh, fruity aromas and dance vivaciously across the palate. Juicy apple and pear flavors combine with a clear citrus note that gives the wine a taut structure. The acidity is crisp and refreshing, while the body is light to medium in weight, with a pleasing residual sweetness that appears exceptionally well balanced. The finish is surprisingly long, marked by grapefruit, lime freshness and a hint of wet pebbles.

The Pinot Grigio grape variety, also known internationally as Pinot Gris, comes from the vineyards of the Palatinate in Germany. Here, Weingut Lukas Kesselring relies on certified organic cultivation, allowing the vines to grow in an intact, vibrant environment. The soils are rich in limestone and loess, giving the sparkling wine its clear, cool aromatics and perceptible mineral character.

Production of Pinot Grigio Mousseux non-alcoholic – Weingut Lukas Kesselring

The grapes for Pinot Grigio Mousseux non-alcoholic - Weingut Lukas Kesselring come from selected vineyards around Ellerstadt in the Palatinate. The climate here is warm and rich in sunshine, while also shaped by cool evening breezes. This combination produces ripe, aromatic grapes with clear freshness. Limestone and loess soils retain warmth while also passing mineral character and delicate spice on to the vines.

The harvest is carried out selectively and with a high quality standard. Only sound, fully ripe grapes are sent to the presses. Gentle processing preserves the variety’s characteristic fruit and prevents coarse bitter compounds. After pressing, the must undergoes cool pre-clarification, removing unwanted sediment and creating a pure, clearly structured aromatic profile.

The first fermentation takes place under temperature-controlled conditions in stainless steel tanks. Low temperatures preserve the fresh fruit aromas of apple, pear and citrus. This is followed by a gentle de-alcoholization process that preserves the delicate aromatic and flavor notes. Tank aging gives the wine precision, clarity and a modern, linear style without the influence of oak.

The bubbles develop through a second fermentation or through the carefully measured addition of carbon dioxide, giving the mousseux its elegant, finely creamy foam. The winemaker’s focus is on balance: fresh acidity, lively fruit, subtle sweetness and a texture that is inviting in the glass. Lukas Kesselring represents a modern Palatinate style shaped by organic principles and a distinctive signature:

• consistent organic cultivation (DE-ÖKO-022)
• precise fruit rather than overt sweetness
• clear, cool aromatics with a juicy core
• authentic origin from the Palatinate
• low-alcohol enjoyment with high quality standards
