Crémant d’Alsace - Brut Rosé NV - Jean Geiler

A wonderful pink sparkling wine made from 100% Pinot Noir. The harvest usually starts at the beginning of September. Grapes are exclusively picked by hand with the winemaker controlling the maturity from the selected parcels. The bunches of grapes are then put intact in the pneumatic press on low-pressure programs. After a first fermentation in tanks, a second fermentation takes place in the bottle. This process is called the Traditional Method, as used as in the production of Champagne.

Beautiful rosé robe, supports and reflects pleasant 'salmony' tones. A fine stream of lively regular bubbles rising in the glass. A charming bouquet full of fruits, with hints of small red berries. A well-balanced mouth fruity but not sweet, with red fruit aromas and a nice freshness. Perfect on its own as an apéritif.
