Crémant d'Alsace
Crémant d'Alsace (Pinot Blanc-dominant, traditional method, minimum 9 months on lees) — apple, white flowers, discreet autolytic brioche and fine bubbles cleanse the palate between each crispy nem; taut acidity de-greasing 170°C-fried rice paper, bubbles lifting pork-prawn-vermicelli filling, freshness holding nuoc-cham dipping sauce.
Gewurztraminer
Alsatian Gewurztraminer (opulent grape on varied Haut-Rhin soils) — lychee, rose, fresh ginger and 10-25g/L residual sweetness harmonise with the pineapple-rice-vinegar sweet-sour sauce served with nems; residual sugar tempering vinegar acidity, lychee prolonging pineapple, ginger echoing the grated ginger in pork-black-mushroom filling.
Sauvignon Blanc
Loire Sauvignon Blanc (Touraine or Sancerre on Centre-Val de Loire flint and tuffeau) — citrus, cut grass, boxwood and taut minerality highlight the vegetal freshness of fresh spring rolls; green-herb edge mirroring fresh coriander and chopped mint inside the rice paper, taut acidity holding squeezed lime on hoisin-peanut sauce.
