The wine region of Crémant d'Alsace
France's best-selling sparkling wine after Champagne. Fine traditional-method bubbles (min. 9 months on lees), fresh and fruity with signature notes of green apple, pear, white flowers and almond, a taut finish. Dominant Pinot Blanc (roundness, supple base), ample Pinot Auxerrois, mineral Riesling and taut Chardonnay.
The wine region of Alsace
Capital of great French aromatic whites, most often dry and single-varietal. Straight, mineral Riesling (lemon, gunflint), opulent, exuberant Gewurztraminer (lychee, rose, spices), round, smoky Pinot Gris, floral, crisp Muscat, supple Pinot Blanc. Fine, fruity Crémants d'Alsace, exceptional sweet Vendanges Tardives and Sélection de Grains Nobles. 15,500 ha at the foot of the Vosges on varied soils, 51 Grands Crus since 1975.
The word of the wine: Rootstock
American vine on which a French vine is grafted. This is the consequence of the phylloxera that destroyed the vineyard at the end of the 19th century: after much trial and error, it was discovered that the "pest" spared the roots of the American vines, and the technique became widespread.
