Dopff au Moulin, Cuvée Julien, Crémant d’Alsace, France NV

The perfect size for a picnic, this half-bottle of Crémant d'Alsace is a 50/50 blend of Pinot Blanc and Auxerrois, made by an historic Alsace estate – Julien Dopff pioneered the first Crémant d'Alsace in the first years of the 20th century. It's rounded in character, ripe with notes of apples and other orchard fruits, accented by a slight chalkiness and white flower perfume. Fresh and fun, lovely summer sipping.
