Second bottle of this vintage, now hitting 10 years of age. Excellent as always.

Ripe, floral, and complex bouquet shows pretty notes of orange creamsicle and spices on a bed of grove and orchard fruit. This is taut, a hint glazed, and very balanced, with key lime flavors that are supported by a strident cut, mineral energy, and a vibrantly frisky bead. A solid performer.

WSET Level 2 Class; 9/13/2018-11/4/2018 (The Texas Wine School) : Good quality sparkling wine that is clear, pale gold in color. On the nose, it's clean with a medium intensity.

Bought a bottle on a short holiday. Asked for a subtle chardonnay, and thats what this is. Not in your face vanilla, but starts fresh, fruity and a layer of wood in the finish. Well made.
