This is really good - quite rose like for a "blanc" de noirs. Definitely some body to this sparkler. A little baked bread - brisk acidity and some nice red fruits - cherry and strawberries. Lingers. Drink now.

Last time I drank this I called the color "blush". This has now developed a rosier hue. Still very tiny, tight bubbles, although not as intensely effervescent as before. Lovely notes of brioche, strawberry, a bit of pear and a slightly yeasty finish. Very nice. Drank in celebration of son Matt's and family's pending move to Phoenix.

A hint of sherry suggesting a bit of oxidation. Not off putting but certainly suggesting this is ready to drink.

Color has turned from blush to more of an orange salmon like. Delicious cherry, ginger and brioche flavors.

Liked it -- but seemed a bit old.
