This wine is holding up beautifully! It is drinking well now, but I believe in another year (and more) the silkiness of this wine will be even better. Please see my other notes for more detail. Pushing the drink window out a little more, another 2 years on the maximum.

As as "sparkling" wines go, this is one that completely satisfies all of my desires. This wine works with so many food pairings from seafood to salads, but is also a pleasure to just sip and consume. I have already written several notes on this vintage, if you are interested.

Nose of toasted almonds and freshly baked bread. Bracing palate provide a fine mousse to pair with bright stone fruit and searing acidity that passes quicikly into minerals, lemon, key lime pie, and clover honey.

Flavors of pear, honeysuckle, and slight lemon composed in the body of a crisp, sharp sparkling chardonnay. The name Le Reve, "the Dream" is perfect for this wine. I keep consuming this vintage and it keeps demonstrating the length of longevity remaining in the bottle. I am now pushing my drink window out another 3 years to 2033.
