While it has lost much of its verve, enjoyed a misplaced bottle from the cellar last night. I chilled it in the 'frig for a while and it worked nicely with some Chinese and Indian dishes. PGM's earlier notes capture my impressions.

Not too sweet, this is a great, refreshing summertime sparkling wine. In comparison to the last bottle, this showed quite distinct stone fruit flavors, with a floral nose and finish. It's not by any means profound, but because of its low price and low alcohol, it's one to drink whenever the whim strikes you.

This is an outstanding dessert wine. It doesn't offer a whole lot of complexity, the flavors are not very distinct, like a tropical fruit compote, with floral, lightly spiced nuances. It's sweet, but not at all cloying, it tends much more to the refreshing side. The texture is a very very fine but persistent bead. Great for an equally light and refreshing dessert of berries or other delicately prepared fruit.

This was a really nice desert wine. There was a pleasant combination of sweetness and freshness. I drank it with a strawberry mousse, a pleasant combination.

Love this light, fruity, floral wine. Not too sweet, not too bubbly, just the right combination for a hot afternoon snack or dessert.
