Cremant d'Alsace Brut Nature 'Clair 2 Lune' Vignoble Des 2 Lunes 2013

The Cremant d’Alsace Brut Nature ‘Clair 2 Lune’ is a high-class sparkling wine produced in Alsace by Domaine Vignoble des 2 Lunes using artisanal practices. It is the flagship Cremant d’Alsace of the winery, a category that owners Amélie and Cécile Buecher are firmly committed to, resulting in exceptionally high-quality sparkling wines that mirror the model of fine Champagnes from small vignerons.

The ‘Clair 2 Lune’ Brut Nature Vignoble des 2 Lunes Cremant d’Alsace is made exclusively from Pinot Noir grapes grown under certified organic and biodynamic practices. After the fully manual harvest, the clusters are gently pressed and vinified in white, followed by the alcoholic fermentation of the must in stainless steel tanks. Once ready, the base wine is bottled with the addition of liqueur de tirage for the second fermentation in the bottle according to the Classic Method, coupled with an extensive aging on the lees for at least 96 months. After this prolonged period, the wine undergoes disgorgement and is topped up with the same wine, with no dosage added.

Visually, the Cremant d’Alsace ‘Clair 2 Lune’ Brut Nature from Vignoble des 2 Lunes displays a straw-yellow color with golden hues and fine bubbles. The complex aromatic profile is defined by intriguing notes of red fruits, pear, citrus, peach, red apple, and honey, enriched by captivating hints of mushroom and brioche. The tasting experience is broad and creamy, featuring pronounced freshness and elegant minerality, which define a progression of lasting persistence, where the previously noted mushroom and citrus flavors return.
