What is this wine?
Limnad is a boutique German sparkling wine producer, crafting traditional-method wines that showcase precision and terroir. This Blanc de Noir Extra Brut is made entirely from red grapes (most often Pinot Noir or Pinot Meunier), gently pressed to produce a white sparkling wine. The 2020 vintage was aged on its lees, giving texture and depth while preserving a bone-dry, mineral-driven profile.

What does this wine taste like?

When should you drink this wine?
Ideal as an aperitif, with oysters, smoked salmon, or charcuterie, but serious enough for the table alongside roast poultry or mushroom dishes. Drink now through 2026.
