Next time you fancy a sparkling wine, branch away from the usual Cava or Prosecco and try this outstanding German Riesling from an estate established in 1849. Malcolm Gluck has written: “German Riesling is the world’s most sublime white”, and those from Reichsrat Von Buhl are among the best. The estate consistently receives over 90/100 points from Wine Spectator and Robert Parker, while a leading German publication lists a Von Buhl wine amongst the best 100 in the world. Crafted by Mathieu Kauffmann (former cellar master of Bollinger) from organic grapes using the traditional method, this stylish Riesling is lime crisp and zippy with a delightful echo of peaches and pears. Great for celebrations and with canapés, poached salmon or chicken.

"Fine fizz, with a creamy mousse, ripe fruit and toasty flavour. My go-to sparkling choice" Kirsten Willis
