Freiherr von Schleinitz Sekt Brut - Koberner Schlossberg(2003)
VINTAGE
The hottest vintage since the 16th century. According to research out of monastery records, this extremely hot vintage has no modern parallel. Even though some of the old vintners compare the vintage to the legendary 1959, where acid levels were low but concentration was high.
In our winery, the vines in the top terraces of the Uhlen dried up completely, preventing the vines from producing any useable fruit, while in the locations where enough water was available to the vines, the grapes achieved enormous ripeness with hardly any botrytis.
