Crémant Grand Prestige Blanc and Crémant Grand Prestige Rosé are two sparkling white wines that are perfect for any other occasion.
Food pairings & Crémant d'Alsace
Our Brut Crémants are the perfect accompaniment toseafood (shellfish, crustaceans, caviar, etc.). This wonderful pairing with seafood can also be enjoyed with raw or grilled fish. Crémant Grand Prestige Rosé is ideal with beef carpaccio or spicy fish tartares.
Crémants are also worth discovering with bloomy rind cheeses such as Brie or Camembert, goat's cheese or sheep's cheese, or even soft cheeses such as Brillat Savarin.
The bubbles of Crémant accompany your desserts
Crémant Grand Prestige, made from our best Pinot Blanc grapes, is the ideal accompaniment to gourmet desserts with notes of roasted hazelnuts or caramel.
Rosé Crémants, made from Pinot Noir grapes, such as Grand Prestige Rosé or Crémant Brut Rosé, are the perfect accompaniment to red fruit desserts, bringing out their aromas. Think, for example, of raspberry mille-feuilles, red fruit soups or strawberry macarons.
An aromatic Crémant d'Alsace Demi-sec is the perfect, delicate accompaniment to fruit-based desserts (tarts, clafoutis, crumbles), biscuits, cookies, and the famous Kougelhopf.
In short, dare to accompany an entire meal with Crémants d'Alsace, sparkling wines from the Alsace vineyards! Enjoy!
