The Specially Selected Cremant d’Alsace Brut begins with a fresh, inviting aroma of citrus including orange, lemon and grapefruit plus some green apple and a little bit of a pastry note. It’s a nice start.
Taking a sip reveals a dry, crisp and delicious sparkler with similar flavors to the nose and lots of fine bubbles.
It ends crisp, dry, long and satisfying, practically begging you to take another sip. This is really nice!
