Description
The Crémant d’Alsace Brut 2020 from Albert Boxler (more information about the winemaker) is an elegant and characterful sparkling wine that demonstrates the traditional winery's precise craftsmanship even beyond its still wines. The blend of Pinot Auxerrois, Pinot Blanc, and Pinot Noir combines freshness and finesse with a pleasantly creamy texture.
The traditional bottle fermentation and longer aging on the lees give the Crémant a fine perlage and additional aromatic depth. In the glass, juicy yellow fruits and citrus notes meet subtle hints of brioche and pastry. Despite its creamy side, it remains lively, clear, and pleasantly dry. The low dosage emphasizes its straightforward character and ensures a fresh, harmonious finish. A versatile Crémant that impresses as an aperitif as well as an accompaniment to light dishes.
This is what to expect when drinking
Fresh pear, yellow apple, and apricot combine with citrus zest and delicate notes of brioche and yeast pastry.
Vibrant and elegant with fine perlage, juicy fruit, and pleasant creaminess. Fresh acidity and a subtle mineral note provide balance and a clear, lingering finish.
Excellent with oysters, seafood, sushi, smoked salmon, light appetizers, poultry, and mild cheese.
