Pierre Sparr Alsace One is a harmonious blend showcasing the best of Alsace's varietals: 40% Muscat, 40% Riesling, and 20% Pinot Gris. Sourced from meticulously selected parcels spanning the Alsace vineyards between Sigolsheim and Obernai, this wine exemplifies the region's rich winemaking heritage. Grapes are hand-harvested in small crates to preserve quality, swiftly delivered to avoid oxidation. Cold settling of the must precedes fermentation in stainless steel tanks maintained between 18°C and 20°C for about a month. Post-fermentation, the wines are stabilized and aged in tanks to enhance their aromatic and flavor profiles before bottling. Pierre Sparr Alsace One charms with its aromatic intensity, balanced acidity, and a palate that marries floral notes with citrus and ripe stone fruits. This wine is a testament to Pierre Sparr's legacy of crafting elegant Alsace blends that capture the essence of the region's terroir.
