Pale salmon color. Drank a couple glasses over 1.5 hours. First boat Champagne of the season. Earthy ocean notes up front, cherry, roasted almond, nougat, smokey yeast on the nose. Strawberry cream palate, with almond, nougat, spiced cherry, and smoky minerality on full bodied frame.

Sushi and Champagne at Billy's (Billy Sushi, Mpls, MN): Ultra pale salmon color. Drank a glass over 30 minutes. Strawberry, raspberry, red currants, yeasty, strawberry panna cotta, potpourri of red flowers, very elegant, though this has deceptive power with a little of that iron fist in a velvet glove quality. Love it. 92+ to 93pts.

Assertive, full flavored, bright and fresh. I liked this and would look for it again. Richer strawberry profile, really liked this against some of the crudo and ceviche we had at the beginning of the meal.

Luis Does Tilia (Tilia, Mpls): Pale salmon color. Drank a glass over 30 minutes. This was quite nice; a delicate wine offering a suave mix of light red berries, yeast, and strawberry pastries; creamy texture, cherry and a light to moderately toasted finish. Nice balance and a finessed style I gravitate toward.

Rose's on the Deck (For a Time): A Summer Party -2nd Edition (Matt and Brenda's, Minneapolis, MN): Pale salmon color. Drank a glass over 15 minutes. This was quite nice; offering a decidedly toasty nose with toasted almonds, strawberry, river rock and a touch of smokiness. On the elegant side, well balanced and no edges. Excellent. 91+ to 92pts.
