Kir Royale and Potato Chips (Dirler Cadé Crémant d’Alsace)
Bethany Heinze chose a sparkling French wine from the Alsace region for a Kir Royale: Dirler Cadé Crémant d’Alsace. This grippy, acidic, bone-dry sparkler is the ideal stomach opener during aperitivo hour and the perfect base for a sweetener like crème de cassis. “I like a crisper, lighter style to use for cocktails, so Alsace is the perfect place.”
