Domaine Jean Becker is just as skilled at sparkling wines as at still wines. This organic Cr\u00e9mant d\u2019Alsace is proof of that. It is made using the \u201ctraditional\u201d method from Auxerrois (90%), Pinot Gris (3%) and Chardonnay (7%) grapes, hand-harvested when perfectly ripe. Before disgorging, the wine rests on the lees for 6 months, developing depth and complexity. It is bottled as Extra Brut with 5 grams dosage.<\/p>\n
