  • Region: Rheinhessen
  • Country: Germany
  • Year: 2010
  • Price: $18.00, Sale: $4.95

  • Vintage Cellar Review:   “The fruity, mouthwatering wine has a nice acidity-sugar balance and comes from the so called 'Rheinhessen-Switzerland', the heartland of Rheinhessen. It has a floral bouquet and is full of lemon zest, hint of passion fruit, and smells like yellow fruit, lemon-grass and green tea, all wrapped around a pleasant creaminess and a semi-dry profile. The finish is zippy and refreshing. Perfect for party on the deck as it comes in a liter bottle!”

  • My Review: This sparkling wine had a floral and citrus-y scent to it. Of the white wines that I sampled this week, I found this one to stand out. The taste was fruity with little acidity, making for a delicious combination. I felt that the carbonation really boosted my enjoyment of this tasty German wine. I would not mind drinking a glass of this wine following a meal, as it seems like it would top off a delicious meal nicely.
