NV Emile Beyer Cremant d'Alsace Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs, Alsace, France
ABOUT THIS WINE
A blend of 50% Auxerrrois, 40% Pinot Blanc and 10% Chardonnay. The grapes are hand-harvested at optimum maturity. There is no malolactic fermentation to preserve the natural freshness of the fruit. The sparkling wine is produced according to the strict rules of the traditional Champagne method. The wine spends at least 3 years on its fine lees before disgorgement, far beyond the minimum aging required by many Champagnes.
ABOUT THIS PRODUCER
Emile Beyer is a family estate located in the heart of the Alsace wine region. The firm of Emile Beyer is under the guidance of Christian Beyer, who represents the 14th generation of the Beyer Family of wine growers in the charming village of Eguisheim, together with his wife Valérie. Located just outside of Colmar, Eguisheim was the birthplace of viticulture in Alsace and is a village dear to the hearts of wine lovers. The vineyards benefit from a wealth of diverse terroirs including limestone, sandstone, chalky marl and clay in varying proportions from one plot to the next. Combined with the unique microclimate, the vines can reach their highest potential. The experience that Emile Beyer has acquired over generations enables the domaine to classify its wines by the grape varietal and also by quality, according to the location of the vines. Each different category must meet the Domaine’s rigorous quality standards and expectations in order to bear the Emile Beyer label. Today, both modern and traditional techniques are used to produce wines of great character and finesse. All Emile Beyer wines are certified organic, and the Domaine wines are also certified biodynamic by Demeter.
