Try it on the rocks

While malting is standard for barley

and a savory granite grip running underneath

but Alsace has been quietly making excellent traditional-method sparkling wine for decades

Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino 2020 Wine Bar | Sparkling & Cider Claude CazalsFrom a historic slope overlooking Monte Amiata, Andrea Cortonesi crafted this stunning expression of Sangiovese Grosso. The 2020 vintage bursts with minty freshness and wild herbal notes woven through bright cherry berry fruit, supported by sweet spice and zesty acidity. Aged 24 months in French and Slavonian oak, it achieves remarkable balance and complexity while maintaining a tart cranberry finish that begs for another sip.
