Winemaker Notes
The wine pours an almost translucent bright yellow, with hints of green reflecting off the glass. The nose is instantly defined and distinctive, offering up bold orchard fruits, crisp pears, and lemon curd, all of which come together in a rich, creamy off-dry style that is extremely appealing. There is a deft touch of minerality, playing nicely against the subtle sweetness of the wine. The finish shows excellent length and fine overall balance.

Tasting Panel
Sweet scents of Bosc pear, acacia flower, green melon, and tangerine carry nimbly over to the palate, where they're met by glimmers of pineapple and tangy citrus cream followed by a lick of salinity on the finish. Juicy yet clean, this sparkler wears its 15 grams per liter of residual sugar well.
