Wachstum König

Anni König. After the death of her husband, Anni König took over the farm, preserving the heritage and knowledge of earlier generations of the family.^[1]

Biodynamic farming underpins the fruit that goes into the bottles. According to Wachstum König, the cherries for Vogelkirsche 2025 and the fruit behind Mammutquite 2025 are both farmed biodynamically.^[2],[3]

Pétillant naturel. Williams Birne Sparkling 2025 is made by the pétillant naturel method: ripe Packham pears are pressed and the juice ferments directly in the bottle.

Cold pressing, unfiltered and additive-free. Mammutquite 2025 is cold-pressed, left unfiltered, and bottled without any additives.

Fruit sourcing. The fruit is varietal-specific and, in one case, drawn from very old trees.^[1]

• Packham pears — pressed ripe for Williams Birne Sparkling 2025.
