Moritz Kissinger "Winzersekt No. 4" Sekt NV

Importer's Notes

It could be that Moritz’s true love is sparkling wine. He has spent a lot of time in Champagne. Here we have Kissinger’s 'Winzersekt No. 4,' a homage to a more direct expression of sparkling wine. The bottling has fine layers of nervy citrus and stone fruit, a tensile backbone of minerals, and dusty herbs. As with great Champagne, the dizzying quality is both precision and an almost airy expansiveness. Having said this, we should point out that one of the most compelling qualities is that Kissinger’s sparkling is that it is not Champagne, it is something different. It is a great, honest German sparkling wine. The 'Winzersekt No. 4' is a one-third blend of Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, and Pinot Blanc. Most of it is from the 2023 vintage, though a solera consisting largely of vintages 2020, 2021 and 2022 are also blended in.
