Tasting

Crémant d'Alsace is easily tasted for apéritif. Why not be a little daring and try it over a meal? Made from a blend of Riesling and Chardonnay, this Crémant Grand Millésime offers a firm structure and complex aromas.

Terroir :

This Crémant d'Alsace comes from plots of the family estate cultivated in biodynamic and is composed of Riesling (50%) Chardonnay (50%).

The wine was bottled in 2017 to make its foam setting. The aging on slats lasted more than 5 years, which brought to this creamy complexity in the aromas and volume in the mouth. The disgorgement date indicated on the label will allow you to taste it according to your tastes. A year after the disgorgement, the wine reveals its characteristic fruit aromas. Beyond it it gains in complexity.

Clos Saint Landelin

Located in Rouffach, the Clos Saint Landelin fully owned by the Muré family, covers an area of 12 hectares (29 acres)
