    July 22, 2015 - Pet Nat and rotisserie pork shoulder Cuban style? Yes, Please! Great green apple, some extra body from the Roussanne and a touch of RS. Perfect.

    July 30, 2014 - - Light gold color with medium pearls and has flavours of grapefruit and apple - I really nice, dry sparkling. Nice apple/citrus. Really enjoyed it.

    May 29, 2014 - I loved this crazy little wine. The mousse was more vigorous than I was expecting. I assumed, incorrectly, that this was going to be frizzante, but it's a full on sparkler. The nose definitely has some interesting components - honey, apple, pear, green tea, mint. On the palette, there's a fair amount of RS, but this isn't moscato sweet. I'd call it "extra dry" if I were using sparkling wine nomenclature. It balances the acidity well. Very food friendly or enjoyed on its own.

    April 3, 2014 - 90% Chardonnay 10% Roussane. Partially fermented in bottle and then closed with crown where it continues fermenting. Has some RS. For an experiment, which I assume this sort of is, its works it out.
