Once flourishing, vineyards in the Alsace/Lorraine area were destroyed by 3 consecutive French-German wars before being revived in the early 1950's by several local families, including the Lelièvres. Nearly 70 years later, vines are blossoming and the Cotes de Toul appellation is back on the map, benefiting from a "cuesta" topography similar to that of Burgundy. This is sparkling Gamay Noir, with bright red raspberry fruit, high acid, and a dry, herbal finish. Crushably tasty, and an extreme value for biodynamic pink fizz. Not to mention the adorable bunny package.
