  No formal notes, but this was really pretty. Probably one of the best UMs I've had.

  disgorged Nov 18, 2018 - acidity was definitely much higher, a little more mineral, and more grippy on the palate.

  Medium straw color on the pour. This sparkling wine has notes of brioche, Walnut nuttiness, and most certainly an oxidative character. Roasted yellow fruit, yet since this is a 2014 still has a lot of sweet peach and pear cobbler influence on the pallet. Herbal finish, with a little bit of bitters and tart. Wow, this one is really a delight. Definitely more full body than I expected it to be, and has a very complex character. If you wanted to hold this wine for the next 3 to 4 years, you would have no problem in doing so whatsoever. But, it was the only one enjoyed tonight really without a accoutrement and did very well.

  Popped a bottle in line with the release of the new vintage. Lemon and orange zest, pear skin, saline, fine bead and bright acid. Excited to try a bottle side-by-side with the late-disgorged version in the future
