  Same as windflyer below. Spot on. Plenty of acid but getting yellow. Not sure if this style inverts in another year or two. Alas I cannot wait.

  goldish straw colour with persistent small bubbles and a fine mousse. the nose has whiffs of red fruit amidst the dominating aromas of green apple and almond-laced brioche. in the mouth it is full- and mature-feeling; a citrusy acidity takes centre stage with secondary fruit and yeasty notes rounding out the palate. finish is moderately long, with a hint of sweetness before a savoury tartness sets in.
  
  very low dosage (3g/L); PN/CH even split; barrel fermented with partial malolactic.

  Pale gold color with sourdough bread, green apple, dried red fruit citrus, caramel and Bay leaf with hints of hazelnut and chalk. On the palate it approaches full-bodied with zesty, mouth-watering acidity and a creamy mousse with green apple, citrus, Rainier cherry, lemon zest and subtle hazelnut flavors with an appealing bit of salinity. 3g/L dosage|12.5% abv|SRP - $35
  
  50/50 blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir with 50% seeing malolactic fermentation. It's labeled as Brut, but at 3g/L could be labeled as Extra-Brut

  Gold. Super yeasty brioche and very ripe apple with a touch of toffee on the nose. Rich style with toasty flavors of marzipan and apricot, good mineral/acid and nice length. Seems to be drinking quite well already. Nice birthday treat!
