"For quality sparkling wines, there is hardly any grape that would be better suited than Chardonnay. It gives the KESSLER Hochgewächs its complex bouquet, the fresh taste, making the finely balanced interplay of sweetness and acidity possible."Nico-Lars Strieth, Oenologist, KESSLER Sekt

KESSLER Hochgewächs is the prestige brand of the oldest sparkling wine producer in Germany. This elegant, varietal Chardonnay Brut ages around 20 months on the yeast and is carefully hand-made in accordance with the traditional method. It is the sparkling wine to celebrate the very special moments in life. KESSLER Hochgewächs has always been one of the most renowned German sparkling wine brands. It was served for example in 1929 during the legendary first world travel on board of the airship LZ127 “Graf Zeppelin”. Later, the German Chancellor Konrad Adenauer got enthusiastic about this sparkling wine and had KESSLER Hochgewächs exclusively served to the state guests of the Federal Government. |
