The finely sparkling Riesling Sekt is straightforward and precise, convincing with fresh citrus aromas and a long-lasting perlage. It has aromas of pome fruits like yellow apple and stone fruits like ripe peach, with subtle brioche notes rounding out the aromatic profile. On the palate, the organic Sekt displays sparkling lightness, typical tropical Buntsandstein minerality that reveals its origin, and an elegant structure. The Andres \u0026amp; Mugler Organic Riesling Sekt is produced using traditional bottle fermentation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eRiesling Brut – Inner Values\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e12.5% vol Alcohol\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e8.0 g\/l Acidity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e5.8 g\/l Residual Sugar\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOrganic Sekt – How Riesling Brut is Made\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Riesling grapes for this Andres Mugler Organic Sekt grow on mineral Buntsandstein soils in the Palatinate. These soils reduce the sharp acidity of the Riesling and round it out with a mature fruit expression. The cool winds from the nearby Palatinate Forest ensure a good acid structure in the early-harvested base wines, which is essential for good Sekt.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe quality philosophy of Sektmanufaktur Andres Mugler begins with careful soil cultivation and consistent greening. The vineyard work of Michael Andres and Steffen Mugler is pure craftsmanship and characterized by a great love for biodynamics. The rhythm of nature largely dictates their actions. For both, healthy soil, an intact flora and fauna, and thus a strong vine, are prerequisites for a healthy circular economy. They hand-pick all biodynamically cultivated vineyards to bring the grapes undamaged to the Sekt estate in Ruppertsheim.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHere, the Riesling grapes are then gently pressed, because the gentler the pressing, the fewer tannins and wax from the berry skin enter the must, and the finer and more long-lasting the perlage will later be in the Sekt. Only about two-thirds of the juice present in the berries is pressed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn the cellar, Steffen Mugler and Michael Andres give their Sekts time. The Riesling grapes are allowed to ferment slowly and undergo malolactic fermentation, in which the malic acid in the wine is converted into the milder lactic acid, which gives the Sekt base wine a special mouthfeel and creaminess.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe following year, the Riesling is bottled and dosed with tirage to trigger the second fermentation in the bottle. The dosage is between 3 and 5g\/l. Now it is allowed to rest and mature on fine lees for another year, it is regularly riddling and the bottles are increasingly turned upside down until, at the very end, during manual disgorging, the yeast plug is removed from the bottle and the Andres Mugler Riesling Sekt rests in the bottle until \"it's good when it comes out,\" as Steffen emphasizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eAndres \u0026amp; Mugler – The Sekt Makers\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Sektmanufaktur Andres \u0026amp; Mugler in Ruppertsberg was founded in 1989 by two friends and Palatinate winemakers, Michael Andres and Steffen Mugler. In the early years, base wines were purchased and made into Sekt, but since 1993, only grapes from their own cultivation have been processed into Sekt. On a total of 17 hectares (7 hectares with Michael and 10 hectares with Steffen), the Sekt estate practices biodynamic viticulture, cultivating Riesling and white Burgundy varieties such as Pinot Blanc, Auxerrois, and Chardonnay, as well as Pinot Meunier and Pinot Noir, in the best vineyards of the Palatinate. From these grapes, German Sekt of unmistakable, elegant style is produced using traditional bottle fermentation. Sparkling wine from Germany at the highest level and in organic quality. In 2019, two Sekts were rated as very good for the first time at the Meininger Deutscher Sektpreis, followed in 2021 by the award from Eichelmann Deutschlands Weine as the best Sekt collection 2021. All honor. Sektgut Andres \u0026amp; Mugler is a member of Die Sektmacher, the association of traditional Sekt producers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOrganic Control Body DE-ÖKO-039 – German Agriculture\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andres \u0026 Mugler","offers":[{"title":"750 ml","offer_id":53074025349454,"sku":"020AMS0011","price":17.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0905\/1124\/5646\/files\/andres-mugler-riesling-sekt-brut-2022.jpg?v=1751011902","url":"https:\/\/nurgutes.de\/en\/products\/andres-mugler-riesling-sekt-brut-2022","provider":"nur Gutes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
