  I was worried this was past it's prime, but was pleasantly surprised.
  
  Salmon in color, lots of tight bubbles which did diminish quicker than I would have liked. Nice citrus scents with grapefruit, lemon & strawberry flavors. Not a true brut, but no real sweetness either.. A refreshing and clean taste... on a cold NYE, bundled up in coats and watching fireworks... a great bottle for a perfect night.

  Great bottle to celebrate SWMBO's final chemo treatment.
  Lovely salmon color, tight bubbles; strawberry, brisk citrus and mineral. Despite the higher dosage, this didn't at all drink sweet; just clean and refreshing.
  This and the '06 Expression 44 more than made up for the deplorable service at a highly rated local bayfront eatery.

  Light salmon color with profuse tight bubbles. All citrus nose. Grapefruit and fizzy peach with a lightly toasty finish. Nice and refreshing but gets a little burn with subsequent sips. Works well as a mimosa base.

  Strawberry, ripe red apple and mineral on the bouquet. Cherry and
  strawberry with a touch of cinnamon and lime on the finish. Paired with French toast waffles, maple syrup, and fresh blackberries and strawberries for brunch. Absolutely wonderful wine.

  A bit on the sweet side for me, but nice mousse and tiny bubbles.
