About the wine:
Alsace is the only wine-growing region in France to produce Riesling-based crémants. And Riesling is Scherwiller’s “specialty,” championed by the Confrérie des Rieslinger. It has earned this winery numerous accolades for all its wine varieties. For the second time, this crémant has been awarded a Favorite. Fine bubbles, the delicate liveliness of a subtly vegetal and menthol-tinged nose, and the allure of a rich, indulgent palate with aromas of white fruit, linden, and jasmine: personality and elegance.
About the estate:
Based in Scherwiller, near Sélestat, Damien—joined by his daughter Aude—has been running a 16-hectare estate since 1998, supplementing its production with a wine-trading business. Their vineyards are spread across three terroirs, including Frankstein, a granite-based grand cru located around the neighboring village of Dambach-la-Ville.

This isn't champagne—it's crémant! The Riesling is elegant and floral, with a subtle yet alluring aroma. Fine bubbles; a very satisfying wine overall.

A lovely crémant with fine bubbles and delicate flavors. The grape variety gives it body and a long finish. It was the favorite of the crémant tasting evening thanks to its connection to the region and its subtle mineral notes.

Crémant d'Alsace isn't champagne. At the holiday table, it didn't quite measure up. But at that price, it's certainly not bad.
