Lothar Kettern, Fio (2015) Spaetburgunder Sekt Rose

Philipp took a principled decision to dedicate his estate to Riesling – except for this wine. Like a lot of Riesling- lovers, he also adores Pinot Noir, but does not deceive himself that he can make the equal of burgundy in
Piesport. Sparkling wine, however, is another matter, and this entirely original example completely poleaxed
us. Its fidelity to Pinot Noir is total – the nose could simply be nothing else. The creaminess of the texture (it was
disgorged in December 2017) gives it a champagne-like luxury. But, and most importantly, the piercing clarity
of its soil expression is unmissable. There is an almost volcanic quality to the soil flavours. We hope and expect
this wine to become a cult favorite. The speed with which the first tranche sold out encourages us to believe
that it will!
