Müller-Thurgau RURALE extra brut - VDP.Weingut Böhme & Töchter

An extra-brut Müller-Thurgau that shows how exciting this grape variety can be as a sparkling wine: bright, fresh and invigorating, with delicate floral notes, a hint of yellow fruit and a very clear, dry character. On the palate, it is precise and lively, supported by fine perlage, citrus freshness and a subtle yeasty spice that gives the wine structure and depth. Not a loud, fruity sparkling wine – rather puristic, crisp and very quaffable.

The RURALE is produced in the Méthode Rurale (Ancestral) style: the must is bottled during fermentation and finishes fermenting there. This results in a particularly authentic, artisanal style – with a slightly yeasty texture, fine grip and a very direct expression. Made extra brut, it remains uncompromisingly dry and at the same time surprisingly creamy and harmonious.

Its cool origin from Saale-Unstrut clearly shapes this sparkling wine: freshness, tension and a rather mineral, clear character are in the foreground. Precisely this combination of cool climate, firm acidity and artisanal craftsmanship makes the RURALE so unique – a sparkling wine that does not rely on opulence, but on precision and energy.
