“Delicate and refined aromas of raspberry and strawberry with a stony complexity that is usually only found in big rosé Champagnes. The taste is equally high quality with lots of fresh, sun-ripened raspberries and wild strawberries and a hint of mint on the edge. Fine, small, integrated bubbles and a perfectly rounded acidity.” – Winelab
It’s just before you can’t taste that it’s an alcohol-free wine. This is how close we are to it tasting like a well-made sparkling rosé. A genuine breakthrough for the quality of alcohol-free wines. 5 big stars.”
Leitz Sparkling Rosé Eins Zwei Zero is something as rare as a non-alcoholic wine that actually tastes like wine. Leitz Sparkling Rosé is made from Merlot, Portugieser and Pinot Noir, and undergoes gentle de-alcoholization via vacuum distillation, preserving as much flavor and character from the grapes as possible. Although non-alcoholic alternatives do not have the depth and weight that we know from “real” wine, Ein Zwei Zero is both fresh, crisp and mouth-watering, with a light sweetness balanced by a great acidity – so it doesn’t feel like anything is missing here . The wine has approximately 50 grams of residual sugar per liter.
Colour: Delicate salmon colour
Scent: Fruity scent of rose hip, lemon peel and raspberry.
Tasting notes: Fresh and slightly sweet with notes of wild strawberries and rose hips.
Serving suggestion: Perfect as an aperitif.
Johannes Leitz took over the family winery from his father in 1999, having been in charge of the winemaking since 1985. Under Johannes’ ownership, Leitz has only gone one way – up! The quality has increased from good to world class and they have managed to expand the fields with some of the best parcels around the town of Rüdesheim.
The hillside west of and immediately around Rüdesheim is one of the most magical terroirs in the entire world for the production of wines from the Riesling grape – and thus one of the most magical terroirs in the entire world for the production of white wine!
This is where we find, among others, the parcels Berg Schloβberg, Berg Rottland, Berg Roseneck and Berg Kaisersteinfels, all four of which enjoy the highest possible classification and recognition in Germany’s hierarchy.
