Disappointing, I was expecting grand things from the design of the bottle.
It just tasted very ordinary and plane.

Some one has gone to a lot of trouble to produce this wine and in retrospect I need to try another bottle.
    At the moment I would rather have there Codorniu Raventos or the Gran Plus Ultra.

Nose: with butter, ripe yellow apples,
Palate: Nice and buttery, taste yellow apples, excellent quality, long Finish: long, rich and full-bodied long aftertaste to be savored in the mouth.
drinking now or soon, will keep longer.
The wine went well with a meal of smoked loin of Pork which it accompanied and did not over power.

Light and refreshing, crisp, delectable clean on the palate.
This bottle comes with a wine jacket (Isotherm Suit) making it ideal to take for a picnic or BBQ or even better a sporting event where you are cheering on your local side or your chosen competitor, deferentially not for spraying over the winner.

Two Champagne houses I visit are now supplying grape juice to the LVMH and Société Jacques Bollinger as they win medal in the Hachette guide and the international wine challenge.
