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.
A medium-bodied white with notes of candied citrus peel, lychee, and slightly overripe pineapple, and a medium acidity. Drink on its own or with leafy, grilled white meat dishes.
The Muster family's Chardonnay, Morillon in local dialect, from clay soils at high elevation. This wine is rich and mineral with a long elevage in old oak barrels before release.
