Domaine Charles Frey Crémant d’Alsace

Domaine Charles Frey Crémant d’Alsace is a light straw yellow Biodynamic Extra Brut Sparkling Wine. It has a beautiful nose with aromas of baked apples and notes of ripe white stone fruit. The palate is crisp with a creamy mousse full of toasty yeasty notes and sweet spices. The finish is rounded, harmonious and balanced.

This sparkling wine is made from a blend of Pinot noir (20%), pinot gris (20%) and Auxerrois (60%). It is best served at 8-10° C and is ideal as an aperitif, alone or with appetizers. The production process includes whole grape pressing with selected yeasts, slow fermentation and ageing on the lees for 6 months then 36 months on slats. No malolactic fermentation.

The winegrower, Julien Frey, has crafted a Crémant d’Alsace that is “explosive” with notes of sandalwood and resada, its root and straight character. On the palate, it distills a flavor that evokes lime tree sap. La revue des vins de France has praised this “perfectly crafted Crémant à la Bubble which is self-sufficient”.
