It is not Champagne. It's sparkling wine from Germany. And probably not great.
IMO it's only value will be the "Porsche label" novelty value.

That's actually quite interesting, cause the name "champagne' was protected long before Porsche even existed, to have them put that on the bottle in the 80'ies, i would think they got sued for it.

"champagnerverfahren" means that it was produced via champagne method. Not from the Champagne region. And not champagne. As Mark said, it's sparkling wine....
Advertising the "champagne method" terminology became illegal twenty years ago, but was legal in the eighties
