Overview
Since 1856, Henkell Trocken has been synonymous with German sparkling wines. Henkell Trocken combines sparkling wine competence, elegance, class, unconventionality, activity and dynamics like no other in an independent and inimitable way, making it the ideal sparkling wine for casual but stylish celebrations.
Heritage
Adam Henkell founded a wine merchant company in 1832 and soon thereafter, moved to France to master sparkling wine production. Recognizing the quality potential for a German sparkling wine, Henkell returned in 1856 to his native Germany and set his sights on producing wine on German soil.
Winemaking
Henkell's distinctive sparkling wines emerged from a unique fusion of French expertise and German innovation. After mastering sparkling wine production in France, Henkell returned to Germany and developed a hybrid production method combining the Charmat Method with Méthode Champenoise - featuring six months of slow fermentation in stainless steel followed by three months of bottle aging.
