Albrecht Brut Blanc de Blancs- Domaine Lucien Albrecht is one of the oldest and leading Alsace family owned estate, tracing its roots back to 1425. Through the Albrecht eighteen generations, they have become one of the largest owner of prime Alsace hillside vineyards. In the early 70's, Lucien Albrecht, the father of Jean, the current proprietor and winemaker, was one of the three founding fathers of the regulated Crémant d'Alsace. In 2004, Lucien Albrecht Crémants made history. At the 14° Concours National des Crémants de France ( Crémant Wine Challenge), they stole the show, winning an unprecedented Four Gold Medals.
The harvest is hand picked and 100% of the production of this exceptional Blanc de Blanc is produced in house by “méthode traditionnelle” resulting in a crisp and dry bubbly with plenty of green apple and citrus yet creamy and yeasty with a long finish. Think sunsets, clicking flutes and light meals.

Albrecht Brut Rosé- Lucien Albrecht Brut Rosé is made from 100% Pinot Noir. Its appealing coral, light pink salmon color is due to the whole cluster being hand picked then softly pressed in a pneumatic press before being vinified by the "methode traditionnelle". The flavors display nice strawberry and wild cherry fruit, with a touch of richness on the mid palate. It is balanced with dry, crisp acidity and complimented with a creamy texture and long finish. Is great as an aperitif and pairs well with Asian foods, amuse-bouche and some cheeses.

Paul Cheneau Lady of Spain- Even though this dynamic sparkling wine is produced from the classic grape varietals of the Penedés and reflects the unique terroir of this historic region in northeastern Spain, Paul Cheneau Brut Blanc de Blancs is seeped in French tradition. The blending and aging techniques are inspired by the finest houses in Champagne and the result is a superior wine that is both complex and elegant in style. SRP $14.99
