It seems we agree in our assessment of the Loire. My co-Rambler Julian is a great fan of Loire Cabernet Francs; I have so far focussed more on the whites, but the Cabernet Francs I have tasted was very good.
The biggest name in Riesling Sekt is Raumland; they make sparkling wines for several of the best estates and also have their own range of excellent sparkling wines, not just Riesling. Generally I find Rieslingsekt is difficult to get outside of Germany though. From the other wines I have tried so far I would say that wineries that make consistently good still Riesling also deliver the goods on Rieslingsekt - so if you find a Sekt from an estate you like I'd just give it a go.

I hope that helps!
