Community Tasting Note

Monday, May 14, 2012 - Disgorged 2009, purchased 2010 and stored until today in my cellar. Another disappointing bottle of this widely praised NV. The scent is pretty enough, but once in the mouth the dominant feature is the weighty dosage: the result is sweet but without a definable fruit character or the back-bone this might have offered. Low acidity and lack of minerality both underline the flabby impression. Very short finish. What with the rather obvious, largish bubbles we both felt this wine to be a touch too similar to other, much cheaper, non-alcoholic, sweet fizzy drinks for comfort. 85P
