Retail $24. 100% Pinot Noir. As with the Jansz wine from Australia, I do not have a ton of experience with Austrian Sekt, but I have at least been to Austria, so a bit of bubbles from the country has crossed my lips. Decidedly pink, almost cotton candy color in the glass with strawberry, cherry, and a pronounced nuttiness on the nose. It has a fine sparkle and nice tartness, but that nuttiness is on the verge of overwhelming on the palate. This would undoubtedly be aided by a food accompaniment. thedrunkencyclist.com

Champagne vs The World (Maple and Ash Chicago, Illinois): Put up against a fine Leclerc-Briant rose champagne, this actually showed pretty well, though I am darned if I could provide any kind of objective description at this point. Pale pink, quite dry, moderate acidity.
