Fernand Engel Cremant d Alsace Brut Chardonnay

When you think of sparkling wines, it's hard to ignore Champagne. This delicate, fizzy wine from the eponymous region in northern France has been conquering the world for decades. However, France, as a wine country, has so much more to offer in the way of sparkling wines. Start your dinner with a glass of Cremant, a sparkling wine made according to the same principles as Champagne, but with a different origin. This Cremant d'Alsace, for example, comes from, yes, Alsace!

The wines of Fernand Engel

This bubbling celebration is made possible by Fernand Engel, an innovative winery nestled in the idyllic landscape of Alsace. The numerous small wine villages evoke an almost melancholic atmosphere. Fernand Engel has particularly excelled in Riesling, the region's crowning grape. However, with the launch of this Fernand Engel Cremant d Alsace Brut Chardonnay, the winery has a new ace up its sleeve: a premium sparkling wine made entirely from Chardonnay! Just like champagne, Fernand Engel's Cremant d Alsace Brut Chardonnay is made using the traditional method. The juice undergoes a second fermentation in the bottle and ages for at least 18 months in Fernand Engel's cellar before being released for sale. This guarantees you a fantastic sparkling wine with this Cremant d Alsace.
