Andreas Bender Sekt Riesling

Traditional “Champagne” Method sparkling wine is rare in Germany, but we’re not surprised that Andreas Bender has attempted (and mastered) it! From grapes grown on the steep slopes of the Mosel, the wine retains a natural sweetness before the secondary fermentation and 15 months of ageing in the bottle. It’s a “Brut” level of sweetness, but is actually fermented a little drier, with the distinctive, bright, citrus style of Riesling.
