RACY & INVITING. Intense aromas of
apple, banana, honeysuckle & flint on the nose give way to elegant flavors
of banana, pear, pineapple & spice. Compelling tropical fruits mix well
with the mineral notes, leading to a light, lingering finish.

From the Franken region of Germany, Kugelspiel received its unusual name (which roughly translates to ‘bullet play’) due to an
acoustic phenomenon: the distinctive echo from the crack of hunting guns fired
in the adjoining woods. While no hunting guns are heard nowadays, these woods
still surround the Kugelspiel vineyard. The proximity to the forest allows for
high quality wines to be cultivated on the Kugelspiel vineyard, particularly as
it soaks up the vineyard’s irrigation waters during the dry Franconian summer
climate. |
