Master of Wine Anne Krebiehl recently pointed to three revolutions in terms of German wine: "People forget the doldrums of German wine, especially from about 1985 to 1995. If you were cool in Germany then, you didn’t drink German wine. But it has changed this century. It happened with dry Riesling first, then Pinot’, she said, adding about German sparkling wine, ‘and now it’s finally happening with Sekt."
First, dry Riesling, then Pinot Noir and now Sekt.
Following the example of "Le Printemps des Champagnes", "Rohkost 2023"was the event to attend if you wanted to understand what is going on in Germany with the regard to sparkling wines.
