100% Pinot noir, disgorged in December 2019. Intense salmon pink. Very fine, quickly rising perlage. Pinot-typical bouquet of elderberry with delicate bitter almond notes and multi-layered aromas of white chocolate, vanilla and oriental spices. Distinctive and complex, built on solid foundations.

Salmon pink. Extremely fine, slowly rising perlage. Red berry, intense Pinot nose with the scent of cranberry. Elegant, in an idiosyncratic style, delicately foaming and beyond that even with a discreet creaminess on the palate. Structure mediating tannin component. Ethereal notes in the very long finish. Remains in memory.

Salmon pink. Very fine perlage. Complex aroma with subtle hints of jelly cherry, pickled strawberry and smoked bacon, but primarily characterised by roasted coffee beans. Well foaming on the tongue, again with the roasted aroma already perceptible in the nose. Enormous length and persistence. A sparkling wine that stands out from the crowd and impresses with individuality and class.

Light, slightly white-golden lemon yellow. Very fine perlage. Delicate yeasty fragrance. Highly complex bouquet with aromas of wild strawberry, citrus, elderberry, lilac blossom, white chocolate, vanilla and nougat. Finely foaming on the palate, suggesting a longer yeast ageing than actually present. Melon fruity fullness, elegant and in style definitely reminiscent of a high-class champagne. Shows a good tension. Excellent length.

Disgorged on 21. December 2020. Straw to golden yellow. Very fine, quickly rising bubbles. In the nose a hint of yeast and brioche. Animating, definitely a little sweetish scent of strawberry, wild mushrooms, flint and green herbs, especially mint. Retronasally salty. Elegant and fine, continues the aromas described at the beginning. Very long, with a fine tart finish, also with some vanilla in the aftertaste.

Delicate salmon pink. Fine, quickly rising perlage. Initially smells of red and green apple, then after a few minutes in the air increasingly complex with a rich aroma of quince and cassis, later also of bergamot and ginger. On the tongue with a delicate yeasty note, floral-vegetable component, ripe acidity and very good length.

Straw to golden yellow. Extremely fine perlage. It seems as if the bubbles rose individually and at a precisely defined distance from the mousse point. On the nose, clear smoky notes and vegetal aromas of white cabbage and horseradish. The overall composition is indeed strikingly reminiscent of Franconian smoked sausages with horseradish. In the mouth, the 1992 Réserve definitely shows vintage typicity. Undoubtedly not an outstanding basic wine, but in an amazingly good and stable condition due to the decades of yeast storage. Very good length. Polarising, even in the four-eye review without a real consensus among the tasters. Against this background, we therefore see our rating as a concession decision.

Disgorged in December 2020. Amber yellow. Delicate, almost fragile perlage with very small bubbles that slowly rise. Aromas marked by the tertiary maturity of the base wine. Little fruitiness, very puristic, some green herbs and celery, salty notes that intensify when combined with food. Slight tinge of geranium. Good length. Although the perlage decreases with time, the sparkling wine takes an amazing development and presents itself much stronger on the second day. For lovers of old wines and Japanese sushi cuisine who like to experiment.

Disgorged in December 2020. Bright amber yellow. Fine perlage. Under the influence of air, an iridescent scent of dried fruits, especially pear and various stone fruits, plum liqueur, walnut and keta caviar. Retronasal saltiness. On the tongue with good freshness and at the same time age-appropriate development and vintage-typical expression of the wine. Fine foaming. Excellent length. Undoubtedly a special taste experience.

Disgorged on 10. August 2020. Straw yellow. Very fine perlage that rises quickly. Extensive aromas of yeast and brioche on the nose. Also a little vanilla. With air contact also herbaceous notes of mint, nettle and sorrel. Retronasally salty. In the mouth with fine foam, great complexity and at the same time a certain compactness. Ripe yet tense acidity, reminiscent of a still partially green wild strawberry. Grapefruit and citrus in the enormously long finish.

Cuvée of 50% Pinot noir and 50% Chardonnay, disgorged in October 2020. Straw yellow with a light pink touch. Fine perlage, whose initially high intensity diminishes a little after some time. In the yeast-influenced nose, hints of rendered bacon, sweet cherry, flint, but also some keta caviar. Noticeable 2014 vintage tone. Foaming well on the tongue, sweet cherry again, but more pronounced than on the nose. Shows style and substance. Very long.

Salmon pink. Fine pearls. Floral and fruity nose with typical Pinot scent of strawberry and raspberry. On the palate with fine foaminess. Shows backbone and, as a Rosé, has “a lot of meat on the bone”. Discreet fine tart note in the finish. Very long and persistent. An hour of rest after opening the bottle led to a remarkable increase in our tasting.

Restrained, floral and vegetal nose with aromas of yellow citrus, partly yellow, partly green apple and dried fruits, mainly pear, but also with hints of plum. Lean, straight body. Slight bitterness, herbal-spicy on the palate. Clearly shows melon in the finish. Very good length.

Disgorged in February 2020, bright lemon yellow. Fine, quickly rising perlage. On the nose with aromas of yeast and roasted almond. Shows clear traces of malolactic fermentation. In the mouth delicately creamy, with vegetal aromas, a slightly lactic component, melon, pumpkin and pumpkin juice and some grapefruit on the finish. Very good length. Undoubtedly polarising in its style, clearly develops to its advantage after a few hours of air.

100% Pinot noir, from the single vineyard Wachenheimer Mandelgarten, disgorged in June 2020. Light salmon pink. Very fine perlage. Fine yeasty Pinot scent with hints of strawberry, very close to a rosé wine. Refreshing, precise and clear on the palate, glides easily over the tongue. In the finish a little sweet jam, but at the same time also spicy grapefruit aromas. Very long.

Initially gripping in the mouth, not a pussyfooter, also not a loudspeaker, but a personality with a healthy self-confident appearance. Fine foam. Needs air in its current phase of development.

Cloudy and opaque yellow of a lemon. Multi-layered bouquet on the nose, with surprising aromatics of bay leaf, juniper berry and green herbs, in addition to lemon and orange.

“Kiss Kiss Maddies Lips" – the name and the artist's label are the programme. The colour of Jan Klein's Pétillant naturel, a cuvée of 50% Pinot noir précoce and 50% Pinot noir, is reminiscent of the strawberry mouth pictured here. Cloudy strawberry red. Fragrance of strawberry, raspberry and some redcurrant against a floral background. Striking on the palate, characterised by fine carbonic acid and a challenging phenolic, which is more comparable to a fierce tongue than a breathed kiss. Very good length.

Distinctly cloudy and almost opaque in the glass. Pure lemon. Both in color, aroma and taste: lemon dominates. Only with a little air influence aromas of ripe pear emerge. In addition, a hint of mint and a piquant, animating acidity, which is still pushed by the carbonic acid present. Clear Saar character. Very long lasting.
