      They mean sparkling wine. It’s called Perlwein in German, hence the mistranslation.

      What nodiet said, sorry about that. Thought I had heard or read it before

      Edit: I do find some uses. A few wine sellers use it, for example this Spanish one

      Also dict .cc list it as a rare noun
