From the winemaker:

Fritz Müller Royal

„The champagne among Fritzes.”
Complex, elegant, vivaciously sparkling.
The "Royal Fritz" owes its name to the royal care that it has received: Winemaker Jürgen Hofmann selected the very best, sun-pampered Chardonnay grapes in the fall of 2010. From these, around 238 gallons (900 liters) of spontaneously fermented base wine were crafted, which was then allowed to rest on its yeast for 17 peaceful months. Turned by hand during the bottle fermentation, the Dégorgement took place in December of 2012.
A classic to be enjoyed in an elegant champagne glass at 46-50°F (8-10°C).

Description:
Gleaming straw yellow revealing golden highlights. Aromas of white flowers, citrus fruit, acacia honey and fresh brioche. Balanced on the palate with a pleasantly disconcerting structure and delicate salinity. Finely-pearled, creamy mousseaux, with a long and fresh finish.
total acidity: 6,8 g/l
residual sugar: 11,0 g/l
alcohol: 12 %vol.
