May 4, 2024 - Wine Spectator Grand Tour (Las Vegas, NV): This straw-colored sparkler sports a brisk tiny bead. Intense and complex on the nose, it flaunts aromas of blood oranges, honeycrisp apples, stone fruits, quince, brioche, marzipan and jasmine. Medium-bodied, vibrantly acidic and with a creamy-textured mousse, it delivers flavors mirroring the nose, showing good persistence throughout the layered mid-palate and lingering, energetic finish. Classic in quality, this tête de cuvée has plenty of stuffing to ensure many more years of enjoyment. Drink now-2038.

April 26, 2024 - WS Grand Tour (Walkaround Tasting) (New Orleans): Lives up to the hype. See Ag’s note for details. But this is excellent now or hold. So balanced.

April 26, 2024 - Stone fruit and almond brioche and perhaps subtle orange rind. Great palate of plush, fine bubbles. My notes don’t do this justice.
Tried this at Wine Spectator’s Grand Tour in New Orleans. First time to one of these. Very fun. Stole some of the notes from DQ. It was a fast and furious tasting.1 person found this helpful Comment
