Friday, May 18, 2012 - Birthday Giacosas (Antico, Chicago IL): nose: well balanced aromatically with tones of pears, white fruits, green apples, and some mineral tones as well. Solid depth, but somewhat straightforward.
taste: medium bodied with medium+ acidity and balanced tones of pears, green apples, and mineral tones. The acidity is refreshing, but the depth is lacking a slight bit.
overall: This was a nice NV champagne. Was expecting a little more from the designation, but a nice enough bubbly.
