I take my WSET Level 3 exam tomorrow night so I thought I would get a sparkler in before the deadline. This one is pale lemon in color and has medium bubbles/mousse. The nose is of medium intensity with aromas of green apple, lemon, bread, biscuit and herbs. The palate is dry (A Brut can have 0-12 g/l of residual sugar). Medium (+) acidity, medium alcohol, medium body, delicate mousse and medium intensity flavors of biscuit, lemon, green apple and those herbs, it's actually quite simple. The finish is medium in length and certainly tangy from the acid. If you like dry (ie. not a touch of sweetness) sparkling wine made in the Method Trtaditionelle which imparts the bread/yeast/brioche/dough flavors then this charming $20 wine is right up your alley. 88 points from me make it a 3 star effort. I'm thinking oysters. Drink now.

Decent bubbles. Didn't notice to overly fruity flavors until night two.

Nice tropical fruit, apple, banana, and a touch yeasty. For the price, very good! Easy drinking. More fruit forward than a champagne.

Simple, but well balanced and very nice texture. Better on day 2. Excellent value and a repeat buy.
