Country: France / Grande Cuvée Brut Millesimé
Variety: Sparkling Blend Alsace
Winery: Joseph Cattin / Crémant d’Alsace
Hints of ripe peach creep in with the yellow plum notes on the nose. The palate adds a generous if frothy creaminess to these flavors, making them fizz and fill the mouth with their fruity freshness. Behind all this lurks a grown-up backdrop of biscuity richness that allows for a restrained dosage and a very dry finish. Lovely now, will benefit from bottle age. Drink 2016–2019.
