#71 Wine Enthusiast Top 100 of 2018 - 91pts
92pts Decanter
Clean, light but aromatic nose - lemon, grapefruit, with a slight yeasty character. Vigorous ripe fruit flavours mingle within a gently creamy texture, balanced by crisp acidity and fine bubbles on the long, citrusy finish.
91pts Wine Enthusiast
Touches of lime and lemon zest entice on the shy but refreshing nose. The palate adds a mellow ripe-apple note, helped along by a creamy mousse. The long finish is poised and dry.
91pts Wilfred Wong
Made from 100% Pinot Blanc and nicely done, the beautifully-fruited Lucien Albrecht Cremant d'Alsace Brut stands out as a smooth-sailing sparkling wine of excellent quality. The wine's refined core fruit flavors and delicate finish makes this wine a great choice for an easy-going brunch. (Tasted: October 25, 2017, San Francisco, CA)
90pts Wine & Spirits
The scent of fresh-cut apples rises off the bubbles of this wine, a sleek, fragrant sparkler with youthful freshness and some salinity to cut the rich toasted- nut flavors. Serve it with a plate of nuts and cheeses.
90pts James Suckling
Appealing lemon, apple and freshly baked white bread notes. A very satisfying balance between freshness, creaminess and weight, the finish rather long and not too sweet.
Winemaker Notes
Yellow pale color with nice brilliance and fine, delicate bubbles. An expressive nose of floral and fresh fruits (apple, peaches and apricots). Nice maturity and ripe fruit on the palate. Dominated by the Pinot Blanc varietal, this Crémant Brut shows freshness, structure and subtleness. Delicious at any time of the day and with many foods. This Crémant is a classic for every occasion.
