NV Pierre Sparr, Brut Reserve, Cremant D'Alsace

 Light yellow with green reflections and fine, glittering pearl beads; the nose offers aromas of galia melon, sweet woodruff 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. Blend: 80% Pinot Blanc, 20% Pinot Auxerrois Ideal aperitif or cocktail wine; excellent with shellfish.
