Lucien Albrecht Description
General Information: Crémant d’Alsace Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée was created in 1976 to distinguish the wines obtained by the sparkling champagne method. The term "crémant" comes from Champagne where it was fallen in disuse. It was the recognition of the efforts made by several Alsatian winemakers, including the Maison Lucien Albrecht.

Vintage: Very mild temperatures in mid-April encouraged rapid budding and very strong vine growth. Mild and sunny flowering period produced grapes of a nice size - a good omen for the harvest conditions. An exceptionally sunny and hot summer followed. The wines of the 2018 vintage are characterized by structure and fullness and retained an astonishing freshness despite the hot August days.
Tasting Notes: This Crémant Rosé, made of 100% Pinot Noir, brings roundness and body in one. Hints of nice pink reflections and salmon nuances supported by regular elegant effervescence. Delicate red fruit character on the palate makes this wine so complete.
