Crémant Extra-Brut – Effervescent Elegance
The Crémant Extra-Brut is the embodiment of the elegance of the region’s sparkling wines. Made from a blend of Pinot, Riesling, and sometimes Chardonnay, it stands out for its reduced sweetness thanks to an extra-brut dosage, even less sweet than a brut crémant. This sparkling wine is produced using the traditional method, guaranteeing a fine mousse and great complexity. This crémant will be ideal for those looking for a dry and refined wine, to be enjoyed during convivial moments.
Notes on Production
It is a sparkling wine with an Appellation of “Controlled Origin (AOC) since 1976. The harvest, carried out exclusively by hand, preserves the full richness of the grapes. These are pressed as whole bunches, then benefit from” a slow fermentation in the bottle to allow the “appearance of fine bubbles. The” aging on lees lasts a minimum of 12 months, guaranteeing a complex, refined wine with a delicate mousse. The wine is then disgorged and corked with natural cork to preserve its full quality.
Crémant Extra-Brut Tasting
This Crémant Extra-Brut is distinguished by a fine and elegant bubble that envelops a complex aromatic profile.
- On the nose: Aromas of toast and brioche subtly blend with notes of white flowers, creating a sensation of lightness and freshness.
- On the palate: The attack is clean and precise, followed by a rich and slightly fruity texture, offering a beautiful balance between acidity and gentle bitterness. Its complexity reveals itself throughout the tasting, with a remarkable length.
Food and Wine Pairings
This Crémant Extra-Brut perfectly accompanies fine and refined dishes:
- Aperitif
- Lobster, Langoustine
- Delicate fish
- Fish sauerkraut
- Receptions and social gatherings
Served at a temperature of 5 to 7°C, it is ideal for immediate enjoyment. It can also be aged for 2 to 3 years for further aromatic development. After the aperitif, feel free to pair it with a Pinot Noir Rittersberg, then a Légende d’Automne for dessert.
A gastronomic wine to discover for your special occasions. It will enhance your festive moments and elegantly pair with a variety of refined dishes.
