Cremant d’Alsace Brut Rosé
We are huge enthusiasts of Pasternak bubbly at this stage, and the Champagne Wishes Panel raved:
Pasternak, how can we choose? The Cremant D'Alsace Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose is yet another winner. This lovely Pinot Noir sparkler is a tad sweeter than the Valdo Nerello Mascalese Brut Rose I reviewed earlier. So, it is an excellent choice for those who prefer a bit a sweetness. This is not, however, a sugary Asti Spumante. The complex bouquet of the Cremant D'Alsace Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose will be a crowd pleaser, if you're planning a Valentine's Day event. It is a great option that will impress both the the brut and sweet loving guests. This wine would be best as a starter, or paired with a berry or chocolate dessert. Boasting strawberry and melon undertones and a profusion of bubbles, this wine turns any occasion festive. Valentine's Day is known for chocolates, flowers, and champagne. Why not save some money on a sparkling wine, instead? Coming in at under $20, the Cremant D'Alsace Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose, is a fantastic alternative. Who knew we could all enjoy such fine French wines for such a reasonable price. Thank you, Pasternak!

When I tried the Cremant D'Alsace Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose, I immediately loved it. Peachy Deegan has never been wrong about wines I should try! I had tried two brut rose wines before, and wasn't impressed with one and loved the other. I was glad I tried this one. I liked that it had a light, sweet taste to it. The first brut rose I tried was too dry for my taste, the 2nd I liked, but this one I liked even better. There was something about this one I can't put my finger on as to why I liked this one the best. Because the weather is so cold out, by the time I got home, this wine was already cold. I enjoyed it chilled. I have several friends that I think would love this wine and I immediately started texting and messaging them to tell them about Cremant D'Alsace Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose. This is one that I plan on taking with me when my friends plan a get together. This is one wine that I know I'll have to keep stocked in my wine cabinet for a rainy day. I am so glad I went out of my comfort zone to try this wine. If I hadn't, I would've missed out on a great wine. I highly recommend it! It would also make a wonderful wine to serve with a romantic Valentine's dinner.
