PnP. Fallow straw color with clear edge. Muted nose of green apple and yeast lees. On the palate: its a bit flabby with green apple notes, a backnote of yeast lees and a touch of residual sugar. Frothy mousse of fine bubbles and a creamy mouthfeel. Medium to long finish of malic acid, salinity and very slight earthiness / yeast lees. Lacks depth and didn't present as good QPR.

The Fifth Annual Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine: Retail $25. 100% Chardonnay. Pale straw color with a nose that is quite shy, a bit of citrus? Maybe? Tart and mineral on the palate, but the fruit is initially a bit hard to find. On second taste, the wine came to life with lovely fruit, great acidity, good balance, and a lengthy finish. 92 Points.

The Sixth Annual World's Largest Blind Tasting of American Sparkling Wine (Houston, Texas): Retail $25. 100% Chardonnay. Appley (is that a word?) and rather one-dimensional on the nose but rather complex on the palate with some yeastiness and depth. Nice. Excellent. 91 Points.

Smells a bit like Cava with the funk on the nose. And kinda on the palate as well. All it, its tasty, but why not drink Cava at half the price?
