Description:
This Crémant d'Alsace comes from the House of Jean-Baptiste Adam, founded in 1614, in the Alsace village of Ammerschwihr. No less than 14 generations of winemakers have contributed to the tradition and exceptional skills of the Adam estate. There are few families that can take advantage of 4 centuries of passion for wine. Today, the founder’s namesake, Jean Baptiste, is the current owner and general director and has followed bio dynamic policies in his vineyards since 2003.
Located right in the heart of Alsace, Ammerschwihr enjoys a micro climate of sunny, warm and dry days that guarantees ideal conditions for growing grapes. The region also receives the least amount of yearly rainfall which ensures the gradual ripening of the grapes creating extremely aromatic wines. The wines of Adam come from slopes with optimum exposure to sunlight. The vineyards are geologically varied consisting of gneiss, granite, limestone, shale and sandstone.
The Adam Crémant d'Alsace Chardonnay Extra Brut is a delicate and dazzling wine with a fine mousse of creamy bubbles. It has notes of melon, lemon, ripe pear and toast and is crisp and effervescent. It is a medium weighted sparkling wine with a dry, robust finish and although excellent as an aperitif or as a party drink it accompanies rich dishes such as duck, venison and beef as well as mackerel, smoked salmon and sturgeon.
