Fitz Ritter Sekt Riesling

A golden colored sparkling. I think had I not known this was a Riesling I would be dumbfounded by this sparkler. The nose is classic Riesling with hints of lilac, rose petals, apricots, and petrol. This drinks like a trocken spatlese, with bubbles, which is what most Champagne producer wished they could achieve regularly. The palate is as inviting and interactive as the nose displaying notes of peaches, sun dried apricots, and almonds. The minerality is very prominent in this wine, always tangible from the beginning to the end. The finish could be a bit longer, but outside of that this is a keeper. Pair with honey-glazed ham
