Wine:
True to the estate’s signature style, the 2020 Crémant d’Alsace Brut White is all about finesse and precision. Its fine, persistent bubbles carry elegant white fruit aromas, lifted by a delicate hint of brioche and a bright, refreshing character. On the palate, it’s supple and finely balanced, with a touch of crisp acidity, subtle bitters, and the perfect level of maturity from the 2020 vintage. This Crémant is made for the table—perfect alongside lake fish, tarte flambée, or even a mildly aged Munster cheese. A true pleasure to drink, where the bubbles bring just the right amount of tension and an irresistibly refreshing feel. Rated 92/100 by our Selection Committee.Vinification:
