Two Bottles Cyprien Lireux

On a wooden table, there are two bottles of fruit sparkling wine from Cyprien Lireux. On one of the labels, someone is tapping a glass of Poiré from an oversized pear. In the background, a wine glass and a stack of books are visible.

There will be a bit more fermented orchard fruit. From Cyprien Lireux in Normandy, we're drinking a bottle of Parcimonie and a bottle of Premices, both from the 2023 vintage.

Two Bottles Kertelreiter

On a wooden table, there are two bottles of fruit sparkling wine from Kertelreiter. One label shows a traditional basket press, while the other displays a galaxy. In the background, a wine glass and a stack of books are visible.

We’re starting the new year, as in recent years, with a little less alcohol in the glass. In this case, that means two bottles of fruit sparkling wine from Kertelreiter: Schefflenzer Edelmost and Galaxy Rise, a dry-hopped cider.
