Clear straw yellow color with light bubbles and mousse. Aromas of stone fruits and sweet scents. On the palate flavors of apple and peach wrapped in a lively acidic frame. A bit sweeter than most bruts, the wine finishes with some minerality and toasty notes. Ok but not great. Use for Mimosa’s.

Clear straw yellow color with light bubbles. Extremely fruity nose for a brut. The palate shows lively acidity and ripe peachy flavors with a hint of minerality. I would consider this brut off-dry as residual sugar may be higher than usual. This is a one glass and done for me, in fact get something better.

Clear straw yellow color with light bubbles. Aromas of stone fruits and sweet scents. The palate shows crisp apple, and peach wrapped in a lively acidic frame. A bit sweeter than most bruts, the wine finishes with some minerality and toasty notes. Ok but not great. Tasting Sample.

Clear straw yellow color with light bubbles. Aromas of stone fruits and underlying sweet scents. The palate shows pear and apple, with a little peach thrown in wrapped in a lively acidic frame. A bit sweeter than most bruts, the wine finishes with some minerality and yeasty notes. Ok but not great. Tasting Sample.
