  Nice, fresh crunchy BdB, certainly improved since release. Still my second least favorite of the UM line up.

  Had this at a NYE function so maybe not the best environment for enjoying a unique wine/sparkler, but this is just not my preferred style. I keep trying to love these UMs...and have been fortunate to have tried them all...but have come to the realization that the UM BdB and BdN sparklers are just too dang dry for me. Seems all their BdB and BdN have super low zero or 2g/l dosage.
  Their Rose' (2-6 g/l dosage), now that's a different story. Both the UM and Cruse Rose's are some of the best Rose's we've ever had, so there's that.
  Just be advised of their style if you're not a fan of super dry sparklers.

  fantastic..words cant describe how beautiful this sparkling wine has become..went so well with lobster ravioli and on its own hint of citrus mouth coating wonderful little bubbles and just a touch of salinity..wish I had more!

  aromas of lime zest, pear skin, bread, and sea salt. Palate has all of that with a bit of creaminess and pineapple and stone fruit. Paired well with the peach crumble

  Wow. One of the best ultramarines I’ve had. Grilled lemon and toasted hazelnut. Bracing acidity, long and full. Great sparkler, complex and unique
