CREMANT D'ALSACE BRUT ROSE - Jean Baptiste Adam

Description & Press Reviews:
Wine Style:   Crémant d'Alsace

Crémant d'Alsace from Northern France are the most popular sparkling wines drunk in France – the French love them.  They are made in exactly the same way as Champagne but are called Cremants (which means cream in French)  as the mousse of bubbles in the wine is so fine and creamy.   This Crémant d'Alsace Brut Rosé from the House of Jean Baptiste Adam is a little gem.  It is made using bio dynamic principes by one of the finest producers in Alsace, founded in 1614 from the village of Ammerschwihr which lies in the Kaefferkopf Grand Cru vineyard.

Crémant d'Alsace Brut Rosé is made from 100% Pinot Noir and is a pale salmon pink in colour with shades of rose.  With a bouquet of red and black currants, cherry and quince this is a lovely wine.  In the mouth it is expressive, well balanced and refreshing with a dense, very fine mousse lasting to the very last sip in the glass.  It is a super aperitif but is also great with food - try it with salmon, sushi or raspberry and rhubarb tart!
