Superb quality and taste for the price! Toasty with some field raspberry notes. Bone-dry and refreshing. Here's your summer party bubbly. Bring it on! A terrific producer and well-known in Alsace and around the world. This bubbly is made using the traditional champagne method from only pinot noir grapes.

Reviews and Ratings

Jon Steeves - Sommelier rated this wine as 91/100 with the following review:

I love this wine. Great value, exceptional taste and an all around great choice. Dry, well balanced, integrated alcohol. Beautiful brilliant pale salmon pink. Medium finish with persistence of tart blood orange, orange blossom, lime zest and pomegranate aril. Made with the traditional method of the storied Champagne, this Cremant DAlsace Brut Rose is a fantastic experience in the mouth and on the senses. Buy by the case option for festive occasions or to have on hand throughout the year. Tasted Jan and re-tasted March 2017. Rated 91/100.
Monique Sosa - Accredited Sommelier rated this wine as 90/100 with the following review:

Aromatic, flavourful and has a gorgeous fizzy pale pink appearance! The Pierre Sparr brut Rosé shows prominent notes of rose petals, starwberry and rhubarb. The palate is crisp and clean with high acidity and a long tangy rhubarb, raspberry and citrus flavourful finish. Enjoy with crispy baja fish tacos. Tasted Jan 2017 - @sommsosa / bespoketastings.ca
Terrific taste for the money. This sparkling wine from Burgundy, called Crémant, is a fraction of the price of champagne yet made using the same methods. - Community Wine Reviews
