Gustave Lorentz Cremant d'Alsace Brut

The balance and freshness of Cremant dAlsace come from the subtle match of the three grape varieties: Chardonnay for its vivacity & fruit, Pinot Blanc for its refined elegance and Pinot Noir for its persistence and subtle dark fruit. Clean and zesty, theres a lemon rind quality to the nose along with whiffs of red fruit. The palate is refreshing, balanced and has a big personality.

Served chilled, Cremant dAlsace is a lovely aperitif and adds a special touch to cocktails requiring sparkling wine. Also pairs beautifully along side semi-soft cheeses, shellfish and chowders. The grapes are carefully selected and vinified according to the Methode Champenoise. After traditional fermentation vin de base in tanks, a second fermentation (prise de mousse) takes place in the cool cellars. Aging is done sur lattes with daily bottle rotation, going from a horizontal to vertical position, in order for the yeast deposit to accumulate in the neck of the bottle. At the time of degorgement, the neck is frozen and, enclosed in ice, the sediment is ejected by natural pressure, after which the bottle is corked and wired.
