Lemon colour, plentiful bead. Very fresh apple-nectarine aroma. Big mouthfilling mousse. Creamy, a hint of coconut. Nice classic taste otherwise, no signs of age. Vigorous; probably has many years' life ahead. [Cork + cage; 12.5% abv; Nickolls and Perks, -10% @ £30]
6/10 - Was very much looking forward to drinking this wine after it's strong showing at the winery. However, the champagne failed to yield the nice toasted bread and relatively complex aromas and flavours I had remembered it for. Not sure what happened. Still some grapefruit and cream (as with last time) but acidity was not as smooth or as subtle as I remembered it to me. An ok wine but was disappointed after a previously strong showing.
