| | Tasted by BMG Wine on 11/29/2011 & rated 91 points: Outstanding bubbly for decorating the house for Christmas. Beautiful golden color. Tiny bubbles. Citrus, bread and mineral nose. Smooth tropical fruit flavors with a yeasty midpalate. Quite delicious sipped all by itself. My family always has a tradition of drinking sparkling wine while decorating for the holidays!

| | Tasted by burgundybrooks on 7/9/2010 & rated 90 points: Lovely acidity, small bubbles, touch green apple, - will hold a couple more years to see toastiness develop (4926 views) |
| | Tasted by Cheryl on 1/5/2010: First Tuesday NV Small Producers vs Domestic Sparkling Wines: Nose - candied sweet nose, hint of oxidation, Palate - bigger body than Egly Ouriet NV VP and longer finish. For the price differential, I'd buy this. Ok+ (5542 views) |
| | Tasted by Wineasaurus Rex on 4/6/2009 & rated 90 points: Crisp and bright bubbly. Perfect for a spring day. Would be excellent with spring veggies, hollandaise, or lemon custard. Better flavours than many of the NV Frenchies at a lower price. (5562 views) |

| | Tasted by Reyman on 11/4/2008 & rated 91 points: Drank on election night--tasted a bit sweeter than I was expecting. It has a nice toasty richness and a touch of coconut on the palate, along with apple and pear. This is one of the better values I have come across for sparkling wine. (2521 views) |
