The sight, the sound, the experience of opening a sparkling wine never fails to elevate the mood. Celebrate an occasion or the end of a workday. (Either way, you deserve it.) Alsace has long been regarded for its lovely, dry white wines but it has gained a reputation for producing traditional method sparkling wines in recent years. Maison Pierre Sparr holds deep devotion to the land, attention to the smallest detail, and an uncompromising quest for excellence is in every bottle bearing the Sparr family crest. This sparkling wine is a blend of 80% Pinot Blanc and 20% Pinot Auxerrois where the intended vineyards must be declared in advance of harvest and must be picked by hand. First fermentation, creating the still wine, occurs in temperature-controlled, stainless-steel vats. Six months later, the wines are blended to achieve the distinctive flavor profile of the brut réserve. The wine rests on its lees a minimum of 12 to 16 months prior to disgorgement. Light yellow with green reflections and fine, glittering pearl beads; the nose offers aromas of melon and dried mango, with minerals and hints of nuts. The soft mousseux leaves a pleasant feeling on the palate, accompanied by a racy, powerful body and crisp, lemony acidity that brings freshness to this Crémant. With time in the glass, it opens further to a complex sparkling brut, finishing with a long aftertaste.
