This is a rather popular French bubbly in our area. We tasted it back in 2014 and thought it competent but maybe a little bland. One again the version we are tasting in 2016 is quite competent and if nothing is slightly more sharp and precise. Also this time the nose was more clean and a lot less yeasty. The base wine seems light and fresh. does not have layers of evolving flavors but tastes swell for about $12.

Several Tastings today! (Minneapolis, MN): Smooth overall with yeast, stone, apple and baking spices. Medium finish and clean.

The mousse is a touch aggressive at first, but the aromatics are great as is the palate. A really nice everyday sparkler.
