Camille Braun Crémant d'Alsace Brut Rosé (75cl, 12.5%)

A biodynamic sparkling rosé from Domaine Camille Braun in Orschwihr, Alsace, made from 100% Pinot Noir at 12.5% ABV using méthode traditionnelle, followed by 18 to 24 months of lees ageing. The domaine has practised organic viticulture for over 15 years and converted to full biodynamic farming in 2005. The nose opens with fresh cherry, ripe strawberry, wet earth and rose hip. The palate is round and mellow, with ripe red apple, dried cherry, wild strawberry, black raspberry and peppery tartness, with juicy acidity. The finish is creamy and well-integrated, with red-fruit echoes and a fine mineral thread.
