The Pinot 2023 from Domaine Ostertag offers an exceptional representation of Alsace's Pinot family, a group of closely related grape varieties. With a pale lemon colour and green hues, this wine delivers an aromatic bouquet of apple, pear, nectarine, vanilla, and clove, enhanced by well-integrated oak. On the palate, it is round and oily with intense flavours of stone fruits, grass, and sweet spices, balanced by medium-plus acidity. The medium-length finish leaves a satisfying impression, making it an ideal wine to enjoy now, especially paired with chicken spaghetti.

Crémant d'Alsace, established in 1976, is France's second-largest sparkling wine category, following Champagne. Produced using the méthode traditionnelle, it undergoes a secondary fermentation and at least nine months of lees ageing, imparting a toasty, nutty complexity. Domaine Armand Gilg’s Crémant D’Alsace Extra Brut presents a pale lemon colour with persistent bubbles and a creamy palate of apricot, lemon, and ripe apple. Its vibrant acidity, long finish, and complexity make it a versatile wine, ideal for pairing with seafood and light appetisers. Scored 92/100, this Chardonnay-based sparkling wine is a fantastic choice for both immediate enjoyment and cellaring until 2030.
