The story

Behind the bottle

Céline Metz is the 11th generation of her family in Blienschwiller, making her wines in the old tithe cellar built in 1728 and farming organically.

C is her Crémant d'Alsace, made in the traditional method like a Champagne, from Pinot Blanc and Pinot Auxerrois with a hint of Riesling. Malolactic in an oak foudre, 36 to 48 months in bottle, and no sugar added at the end: Brut Nature.

Our best seller. If you know it, you know. If you don't, start here.

Where it comes from

Alsace map

The place

Alsace

Sheltered in the rain-shadow of the Vosges, Alsace is dry, sunny and planted to a mosaic of thirteen soil types. Its wines are named by grape — Riesling, Gewurztraminer, Pinot Gris, Muscat — and run from bone-dry to nobly sweet. One of France's densest concentrations of organic and biodynamic estates. ~15,500 ha.
