1 person found it helpfulDec 23rd, 2012A winsome blend of Pinot Blanc, Riesling, Chardonnay and Pinot Gris that sees 12 months aging sur lie the Francois Baur Crémant d'Alsace Brut Réserve is pale straw with aromas of baked apple and rustic peach pie, with a top note of dried mint. The attack boasts high acidity carving a wide swath through orchard fruit and lemon pith. There is a bit of yeast, nutmeg and baking spice on the back palate that gently ebbs to a mouthwatering finish. 12.0% ABV | Sample

A little on the sweet side. Mixed really well into a Negroni sbagliato! Does pair well on its own with a nutty cheese like Comte

Flavor of old apples, which is not altogether bad, with some brightness to it. A little cheesy in the finish.
