Gold in colour with fine mousse and a medium+ intense nose.
Positives: I just love this sparkler, which is one of my top 10 in this category. The clearance price even makes it more attractive. This easy drinking creamy sparkling wine serves up lemon, apple, biscotti, lemon curd, pink grapefruit, yeast, limestone and a touch of rosemary.
Negatives: None
Drink now on its own or pair it with anything, but if you need something, I paired it with Beausoleil cocktail oysters and it was heavenly.

Mineral, biscuit, apple and lemon aromas. Refreshingly crisp citrus finish. Incredible value.

I openly admit to not being a fan of sparkling wine/Champagne. But this sparkler from the Anderson Valley in California may change my mind. I like the complexity of flavours (citrus, toast, pear) and just the right touch of sweetness (not that much, mind you) to balance the acidity. Really nice and very fairly priced. Tasted May 2018.
