  A gorgeous achievement that can hold its own in complexity and pleasure with fine champagne. And yet it also has its own steely taste. I’d surely rather spend the money on this than on the umpteenth champagne—Because, aside from its excellence, I wonder if this superb sparkler may mark a very happy moment in grower history. Breakthrough?
  I don’t know enough to say, but I’d confess to some native pride that we can do this so well, because this wine seems to me explosive and nuanced at once, just a joy

  Delicious bubbles. Measure of a great wine: still tastes great not cold, and this does.

  Grapefruit-rind acidity, crisp minerality, high but not aggressive acidity, compellingly lean Chardonnay character: this is a very high-quality sparkling wine. It is more restrained than the Under the Wire wines (which I also love), but already delicious and easily drinkable.
