This wine punches you straight in the nose with vanilla beans and toffee. The palate reflects these aromas quite a bit with a lot of butterscotch and granny smith apples, like one of those caramel dipped apples that you get at the fair. The granny smiths give it a tight, tart finish to balance things out. Lovely.

Excellent Willamette bubbly. Somewhat dry with a hint of sweetness, nice tight bubbles, tasty yeasty frontend and a great finish.

I wouldn't call this a world-class sparkling, and it was a bit sweeter than expected, but good even without a ton of depth or complexity.

Plum and roses on the nose. Very nice, fine effervescence. Strong biscotti flavor.
