Sekt bA from a Grosslage

I had already blogged about two Sekt bA before and both of these had vineyard designations - Mulheimer Sonnenlay from MSR and Mommenheimer Silbergrube from Rheinhessen. My third Sekt bA is from Nahe - Obermoscheler Paradiesgarten and the owner tells me this is a Grosslage. Now Sekt is not commonly seen in Hong Kong and Sekt bA is rarer still. I understand this is being sold here; Weingut Schmidt has also got a couple of other Sekts and I had already tried these at the "accidental wine tasting" I had earlier blogged about. This wine was a pale gold with few streams of medium sized bubbles and a sweet fragrant fruity nose. There was a pronounced acid prickle on the tongue giving way to an acid slightly sweet and mildly fruity palate. A streak of acidity ran through the palate right to the finish.
