April 3, 2024 - This bottle of bubbles surprised me!
It was fabulous!
It had all the things your mama told you about good Champagne... Except it isn't from the supposed centre of the bubbles universe. It's from sunny CA, USA! 🤣
Like a finely baked brioche, with citrus accents and that cinnamon scent after just pulling Mama's apple pie from the oven, and the creamy viscosity of that dollop of pure vanilla ice cream melts away, as the bubbles/mousse burst on the tongue.
( I know the descriptors here are a little far fetched. I mean, ice cream? But, it was certainly memorable!)
I'm in the midst of tasting and testing sparkling wines from several countries and, so far, this is indubitably my very biased leader... at least as they're galloping along on the back stretch!
More to come..
Buy a case. Save it. Is fabulous now. Definitely going to improve!

July 16, 2023 - Pretty high octane at the moment. Very high acidity and a bit much on both the alcohol and bubbles. Has the backbone for a long life, but don't open these for at least a few years. I'd say window opens in 2027 for me.
