Since the label said "Blanc de Noirs" I didn't know what color to expect. Poured pink-tinged but not really pink; someone else called it coppery, and I'd have to agree with that. Maybe "copper-pink." Nose: red, juicy but subtle fruit and minerals, to me. (I'm still trying to learn how to describe nose.) Taste/mouth: crisp, dry, refined fruit with medium feel; tight, tiny bubbles; and elegant smoothness. I might just have a new favorite from the Iron Horse stables!

Really enjoyed this wine, Strawberry, minerality, and ripe red apple on the nose. Wonderful flavors of apricot, cherry, strawberry and cardamom with cinnamon and lime on the finish. Great acidic balance, very refreshing.

Perfectly tart, cuts through triple cream fromage with ease.
