"Explicitly dry sparkling wines show the real quality of the product. The structure and body of the wine, the aromas of the grape variety and the long yeast ageing periods can fully unfold. This rosé from our Prestige line is the best example of this: complex aromas in smell and taste show what Pinot Noir can produce as a sparkling wine." Nico-Lars Strieth, Oenologist, KESSLER Sekt"

KESSLER ROSÉ RÉSERVE VINTAGE is a mother-of-pearl-coloured vintage sparkling wine made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes that will delight you as an aperitif and with spicy and hearty dishes. In the nose it produces complex notes of redcurrant, cranberry, pepper, juniper, cinnamon and honey. On the palate it is fruity and creamy with a spicy finish, accompanied by a persistent perlage. Like the two other vintage sparkling wines in the "KESSLER Vintage" line, the KESSLER Rosé Réserve extra brut matures for many months in the vaulted cellars under the Kessler house in the bottle on its own yeast. This top quality sparkling wine is also traditionally shaken and degorged by hand. |
