Served at 43 degrees immediately after opening. Salmon color. Tart citrus and raspberry nose. Lemon, apple and tangerine flavors. Very refreshing. We matched this with sauted chicken breasts smoothered in Robert Rothschild Roasted Pinneaple & Habanero Dip. The wine was satisfactory on its own but spectacular as a foil for the main dish.

Good salmon color. Nice bubbles. Nose of apple, some strawberry, some yeast. Similar on the palate. Well rounded with good acidity. This has become a nice New Year Tradition.

Always a great bottle. I love these guys. Pre NY warmup, great way to start an evening. Great color in the glass, makes me happy just pouring it. The bubbles are tight and tasty, fruit comes thru, well balanced with the acidity. Much more fruit than the Blanc de Blanc.

I think this was slightly more refined than the 2006 vintage.
