  From memory.
  
  Gorgeous golden color with a fine, prickly mousse. Nice balanced tension between dessert aromas and flavors (crème brulee, lemon cream, biscotti) and entree fare (sauteed mushrooms). Also just delicious.
  
  Many thanks to Scott and Julianna for sharing this.

  Nothing like my previous bottle on 4/28/15. I don't think age has improved this, I believe previous bottle was of questionable quality.
  
  Medium golden color with strong bubbles; this wine's patina is just showing with red apple, cinnamon aromas; crisp acidity with flavors of apple, lemon, toast, and cinnamon. Very enjoyable.
  
  This shined with Water Grill's fish 'n chips.

  Disgorged 2010. Pale straw. A freshness on the nose, and a surprising density on the mid palate, very vinous. There’s a serious wine here. Quite broad, but with some depth and a reasonable line. Interesting. Initially underestimated this — still going strong after two days with a nicely spicy red apple fruit and vinous depth. ****

  Past its prime. My fault. Tired bubbles, slightly oxidized look, nose and palate. However, you could tell there it was a nice sparkler at one time.

  According to the label, nearly equal parts of: Arbane, Petit Meslier, Pinot Meuneir, Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Pinot Blanc.
  
  Such a savory nose with bread and mushroom and some other mystery aroma (herbal?); very dry austere body with flavors of unripe Meyer lemon and substantial chalkiness. Definitely not a crowd pleaser but a drink for the disciple of wine.
  
  The jury is out on this wine for me. I'm not sure what the dosage level is but I'm guessing mighty low. I have had and enjoyed some Brut Nature wines but this seems like a touch more sugar would up the complexity and balance of this wine. Bottle was not very effervescent at 10yrs of age and I'm wondering if this is a candidate of long term cellaring. I am happy to have another bottle but not disappointed to not have a case of this.
