With great courage and love, Arndt Köbelin set out to create a sparkling wine in his beloved Kaiserstuhl. The Pinot Brut had to be a match for the Champagne and Prosecco that are popular today. He decided to create a unique blend with three grape varieties, just like with Champagne. He chose two white grapes, Grauburgunder and Weißburgunder, and one red, Spätburgunder. This quickly proved to be a success for this Pinot Brut, as it has become a superb glass. The grapes ripen superbly on the old vines and are harvested entirely by hand. All three grape varieties are harvested and vinified separately. Then it is up to grandmaster Arndt Köbelin to create the blend for this Köbelin Pinot Brut Privat Cuvée. Once the wine is ready, Köbelin lets the bottles age in the cellar with yeast and sugar to develop soft, fine bubbles. This technique is also used in French Champagne and is unique. After fifteen months of aging, they are removed from the cellar and are ready to be enjoyed.
And we do this with love and pleasure, because as soon as the Champagne bottle is capped, we smell a wealth of love and passion. Beautiful aromas of ripe yellow fruit, citrus peel, and a touch of freshly baked bread are released. As soon as we pour this Pinot Brut Privat Cuvée, we see lovely little bubbles. The taste is exquisite, initially offering notes of green apple, pear, and lime. Later, on the palate, this sparkling wine truly unleashes, revealing nuances of roasted nuts, vanilla, and a touch of spice. Simply a joy to drink, and many Champagne lovers should be wary of this Köbelin Pinot Brut Privat Cuvée.
