Bacchus 40 %, Sämling (Scheurebe) 25 %, Muscat 20 %, Sylvaner 15 %. Whole-bunch maceration in clay amphora for 9 months yields a textured wine with notes of apricot, cantaloupe, and lemon and a crisp acidity.
With a hint of gunflint in an orchard-y nose of white peach and lime blossoms, this extra brut sparkling foregoes the Batterieberg's usual austere dryness for a more indulgent profile. Still vibrantly acidic, but perhaps a little broader in its appeal than their fantastic Jour Fixe.
