Riesling Sekt brut - Weingut Faubel

Radiant, bright golden color in the glass, delicately accented by silvery reflections, above which a fine, even mousseux dances for minutes. On the nose, the Riesling Sekt brut - Weingut Faubel unfolds a clear, fruit-driven bouquet with impressive freshness and precision. Ripe green apples, juicy lime zest and a whole basket of bright citrus fruits meet a hint of white blossoms and a delicate mineral note.

On the palate, this Riesling sparkling wine from the Palatinate displays tremendous tension and vibrancy. The perlage is fine and persistent, while the texture is wonderfully crisp, almost crystalline. A taut, citrus-fresh acidity carries aromas of green apple, lime and grapefruit zest, accompanied by a hint of wet stones and delicate yeasty spice from aging sur lie. The interplay of fruit, freshness and delicate creaminess creates an invigorating dynamic that delights with every sip. The finish remains long, very clear and marked by Riesling's characteristic freshness.

Stylistically, this Sekt shows the Palatinate at its most elegant. The Riesling grape variety from the vineyards around Maikammer in the heart of the Palatinate gives it:

• pronounced citrus fruit and crisp apple aromas
• lively, tension-filled acidity
• a linear, mineral character
• a long, fresh finish with clear structure

The production as a Q.b.A. sparkling wine from Germany in the traditional style of this region emphasizes varietal purity and its origin in the Palatinate. The grapes come from clay-dominated soils that lend the wine fullness and structure, while the cool nighttime microclimate preserves its freshness. The style is modern, clear and focused on elegance as well as drinking pleasure.

Production of the Riesling Sekt brut from Weingut Faubel

The grapes for the Riesling Sekt brut - Weingut Faubel come from selected Riesling parcels in the Palatinate. The sun-blessed climate of this region combines warm, ripe days with cooler nights. This interplay supports intense aromatic development while maintaining taut acidity. The clay-dominated soils around Maikammer retain water and warmth, giving the vines support and lending the finished Sekt substance and depth.

Harvesting is carried out carefully by hand, grape by grape, directly in the vineyard. Only fully ripe, aromatically concentrated grapes reach the press, which is impressively reflected in the clarity of the fruit in the glass. Gentle pressing with moderate pressure preserves Riesling's delicate primary aromas and keeps the must particularly clear and fragrant.

After fermentation of the base wine, traditional bottle fermentation follows. The Sekt then rests on the yeast for a full nine months (sur lie). This time on the fine lees gives the wine additional complexity, delicate creaminess and an especially fine, smooth perlage. The yeasty note remains subtle, supporting the fruit and elegance without overpowering the clarity of the Riesling character.

Weingut Faubel's style is focused on precision, freshness and elegance. The Sekt shows no interference from oak or overly rich notes, instead displaying a modern, straightforward signature. The dosage brings the brut style perfectly into balance: enough dryness for clear contours, while retaining sufficient fruit character for an inviting, invigorating flavor profile. The result shines in an elegant, modern sparkling wine bottle design that underscores its premium appeal.
