Tasted in Jura as aperitif. Delicious, expressive sparkling wine showing both a nice yeast autolysis character as well as fruity intensity. Great balance

Dinner @ Alo (Alo - 163 Spadina Ave): I think for most ppl the more they learn about bubbles the more they seem to appreciate wines outside of champagne (esp these cremant types). I seem to find myself going the opposite way. The more I drink bubbles, the more I think it is very clear when something is a champagne versus not. This was a nice pairing with the food. It's light and easy and there's none of that slightly cloying flavor you can get in lower quality bubbles. But there's also nothing that particularly jumps out either. Good food wine.
