Fürst von Metternich

For over 1,000 years wine has been cultivated in Johannisberg, in Germany's Rheingau wine growing area. The Riesling wines from this region travelled the world. As early as 1834, the estate owner Chancellor Prince Metternich instructed his cellar master to take notice of the increasing popularity of sparkling wine.

A sparkling wine is only as good as its base wines. The carefully selected German Riesling wines give Fürst von Metternich sparkling wine its special character. The fine balance and round bouquet stem from the racy, steely wines which have been cultivated in the Johannisberg area and at the Fürst von Metternich estate of Schloss Johannisberg for generations. Fürst von Metternich Riesling sparkling wine is available in three different cuvées:

Fürst von Metternich Riesling Sekt Trocken (Dry)

The blue neck label stands for the Dry cuvée, which attracts a wide public. The bouquet is characterized by German Riesling wines. Fürst von Metternich combines, as no other product, an elite flair with high quality and is a symbol of German sparkling wine culture.

Fürst von Metternich Riesling Sekt Extra Trocken (Extra Dry)

The gold-coloured neck label signifies the Extra Dry cuvée, which enjoys particular popularity in the restaurant trade. Connoisseurs who prefer a drier taste will find it in this variation.

Fürst von Metternich Riesling Sekt Brut Vintage

The Brut Vintage cuvée is bottle fermented exclusively from Riesling wines from the Johannisberg district in the Rheingau. The origins of this sparkling wine guarantee a unique pleasure.

Fürst von Metternich Rosé Sekt Trocken (Dry)

The Fürst von Metternich Rosé Dry offers connoisseurs an exceptionally subtle taste experience. Its special cuvée composed of selected wines gives the sparkling wine its outstanding quality. A selection of noble top quality light-colour wines dominated by smoothly pressed dark Pinot Noir grapes rounds off its bouquet and emphasizes its unique finesse – the sparkling wine is as good as the wines it is made of.
