A nose that is like a fresh baked apple tart, just lovely. The palate shows rich and vibrant fruit, Golden Delicious apples, pears, a hint of yeastiness. Not an excessive bead, but that's OK. Brisk acidity, excellent balance. Long, yeasty finish with lemon notes. Just a lovely sparkler.

The nose is incredibly deep, reminiscent of freshly baked bread and toasted almonds. On the palate this wine is all apples and pears, with incredible acidity and a hint of lemon meringue. Perfectly paired with pan-seared grouper. Definitely a food wine.

Lovely prelude to a dinner party with friends. Slightly lush, but not overly so... orchard fruit on the nose with just a faint touch of sweet dosage, round and immensely accessible. Nice effervescence.

Very fresh and vibrant with tight effervescence and light toast. Nice finish. Very good now but this one is not done evolving.
