"Pale yellow in color, with fine, insistent bubbles. A precise nose of ripe fruit is matched by a round, unctuous palate with apricot aromas and a hint of bitterness on the finish." (Le Guide Hachette des Vins 2019). A great success!

About the wine:
A pale yellow color with fine, insistent bubbles. A precise nose of ripe fruit is matched by a round, unctuous palate with apricot aromas and a hint of bitterness on the finish.
About the domain :
Located in Ammerschwihr, an important wine-growing village northwest of Colmar, this house celebrated its four hundredth anniversary in 2014. Its 17th-century cellars house old oak tuns still in use today. It combines a trading structure with a biodynamic estate.

About the wine:
Green apple and lemon are subtle but distinct on this wine's fresh nose. The light, lively freshness continues on the sparkling palate, where the bubbles burst to reveal a background of yeast and sweetness. The finish is dry and bright.

About the wine:
Lots of green apples quite prominent on this one, as well as green guava peel, but not much complexity. Fruity and easy with a touch of sweetness. Drink now.
