2018 Eva Fricke Pinot Blanc Sekt Brut Nature, Rheingau, Germany
ABOUT THIS WINE
Made from 100% Pinot Blanc (Weissburgunder) grown on organically farmed, slate-influenced soils in the Rheingau, this Sekt is produced using the traditional method with second fermentation in bottle and no dosage (Brut Nature). The 2018 vintage was warm and generous, yet thanks to Fricke’s high-altitude vineyard sites, the wine retains lift and precision.
After primary fermentation with native yeasts, the wine rests on its lees for several years before disgorgement, developing creamy texture and aromatic depth. Expect notes of orchard fruit, citrus peel, almond, and a touch of brioche, balanced by a firm mineral core and mouthwatering acidity.
