Description Wine Producer: Gustave Lorentz Country: France Region: Alsace A. O. C. (Apellation D’ Origine Controlee) Production Area: Bergheim Grape Type: Pinot Auxerrois, Pinot Gris, Pinot Blanc, Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. (varies depending on vintage). Colour: White Wine Making Process: Making CREMANT D’ALSACE requires very strict conditions of production and continuous care. The grapes are picked healthy (without any trace of rot) carefully set down in the press in the respect of the rules identical to the “Méthode Champenoise”. After the traditional fermentation “Vin de Base” in tanks, it is in the bottle itself that the second fermentation “Prise de mousse” takes place in cool cellars. This natural phenomenon requires careful and patient attention to each bottle. After the two years ageing period “Sur lattes” the bottles are rotated during 4 days, gradually from the horizontal to the vertical position, in order to the yeast deposit to accumulate in the neck of the bottle. At the time of “dégorgement”, the neck of the bottle is frozen and, enclosed in ice, the sediment is ejected by natural pressure and the bottle is corked and wired, adding an unsweetened “liqueur d’expedition”. The balance and freshness of Gustave Lorentz Crémant d’Alsace Brut comes from the subtle match of three grapes varieties. Features: Eye: Pale yellow and clear colour with fine and persistent bubbles. Nose: Fine and delicate nose with white flowers, Granny Smith apple and pear aromas. Mouth: Frank attack; the palate is supple with some fine and refreshing bubbles, hints of citruses and white pear. Pairings: The Crémant d’Alsace Zéro Dosage makes a perfect partner for most aperitif and celebrations. Perfect match for seafood such as caviar, foie gras, mollusc and smoked fishes. Serving Temperature: 5°C-7°C Actual Alcoholic Strength by Volume: 12,5% vol. (varies depending on vintage). Allergens: Contains sulphites.
