Super rare, super refined, super powerful - this is trademark Lena Macht Sekt taken to the next level and proves that German Sekt (in Lena's truly special hands) can easily compete with, and outperform, the finest prestige and grower Champagnes. Made from 100% Chardonnay from Lena's best plots from the stellar 2019 vintage, with lees ageing for five years, zero dosage and a minuscule run of 1,373 bottles produced.

Prepare to reevaluate everything you thought you knew about German sparkling wine.  Electric, laser like, razor etched acidity combined with broad shouldered, layered, autolytic power. Pithy, limestone textures mingle with flinty gun smoke. Lemon curd, pistachio and green apple caramel brittle with a lingering dried ginger baking spice that you only get with the patience of ageing. Like the very best of Grower Champagne’s limited releases – hairs stand on end, Angels sing in the distance, and you reach for another glass.

Meet Lena Singer Fischer (not related, just in case you were wondering). She is one of the trailblazers currently rocking the German Sparkling Wine, aka Sekt, scene. Lena is really doubling down on Champagne varietals in her native Rheinhessen, and the wines are simply breathtaking.

The grapes come exclusively from the family vineyards in Groß-Winternheim, a district of Ingelheim. Nothing outsourced, nothing generic- just pure estate-grown fruit.

Lena's younger brother Jan is in charge of vineyard management, and together the siblings have been converting everything to organic farming since 2022. The focus is laser sharp: Chardonnay, Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Pinot Blanc. Burgundy varietals only - nothing else.

Harvesting is done entirely by hand, and whole-bunch pressing is non-negotiable. Fermentation and malolactic both run wild, so no cultured yeasts, no additives. After fermentation, the base wines rest on the full lees until summer, when they’re blended and bottled.

In the cellar, French oak of different sizes (mostly used barrels) works alongside stainless steel. It’s less about adding oak flavour, more about the subtle oxygen exchange that gives the wines their finesse.

Blanc de Blancs and Blanc de Noirs spend at least 24 months on the lees. The flagship MYTHOS goes a minimum of 36. Time is the quiet architect of style.

The approach to dosage is clear: extra brut is the limit. Dry, focused, and never masked by sugar.
