Wednesday, December 1, 2010 - Oh, this one makes me proud having grown up in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Who would have thought that a good sparkling wine would come out of the Southwest, let alones Albuquerque, but there's more winemaking and grape growing in the area than you might think. This particular Brut, under $20 (even in the Marin, CA store where I bought it) is a great QPR bubbly. Very rich but also mellow and not too overbearing, with tons of great citrus and acidic notes. This is one of the best sub-$20 bubblies I've tasted.
