Crémant d’Alsace Tradition, Cave de Turckheim

£15.50

Traditional, elegant and expressive Crémant from this celebrated Alsace co-operative.

Widely regarded as one of the best co-operatives in the world, Cave de Turckheim lies at the mouth of the Munster Valley. Working closely with 180 partners, its vineyards span the full breadth of Alsatian terroir and grape varieties.

A blend of typical Alsatian varieties Pinot Gris, Auxerrois and Pinot Blanc made in the traditional method for added depth and complexity. AOP rules dictate that Crémant d’Alsace must be kept on the lees for at least 9 months. Whereas, with characteristic Turckheim care and dedication to doing things properly, the wine for this cuvée will spend anything from 12 to 18 months quietly maturing on the lees. Expressive and lively, this has aromas of baked apples with bright, fresh acidity and a delicious, rounded finish. And with less pressure than you find in a Champagne, the bubbles lend a lovely, soft texture to the wine which makes it even more moreish.
