Way above expectations! It was an old bottle (80's or 90's) that is impressively fresh, complex and balanced. Still a lot of pressure in the bottle, honey aromas, a bit of sweetness and an impressive length. Excellent!

Fresh but mild, decent complexity and medium intensity in the yeasty, peach and pear aromas (with mint and stones in the background). Acidity is ok, balanced by a light sweetness that makes it quite easy to drink. Good delicate bubbles. Not very long. Nice.

Nicely styled, blue and pale gold labels, foil, cage and cap. Lemon colour. Tinned mandarin segments nose. Full, round flavour - more mandarin. Intense, really good - very citrous, both juicy and zesty. Good value at the reduced price point; RRP might be pushing it - although this is easily as good as many grandes marques. [Cork + cage; 12.5% abv; Booths, on offer at £19.99, reduced from £29.99]
