Gourmetklubbens femtiosjunde middag hemma hos P+H: Tema Italienskt (P+H, Södermalm) : Lovely maturing nose showing honey sweetness, ripe apples and some citrus flowers in a nice and pleasant way. With a smooth citrus acidity on the gentle palate and a touch of acacia honey sweetness on the pleasant finish. (Best 2018-2023)

I pop the cork and the fruit jumps out. Never had such a concentrated fruit aroma on opening a sparkler. Nose and front palate are totally dominated by very intense yellow stone fruit. There are hints of vanilla and caramel right after the boost of fruit and then...., then there's nothing. The flavours are all condensed on the front taste buds and then they disappear. There is some joy in experiencing the intense fruitiness, but some length and complexity would …

Aningen instängd till en början men det öppnar sig fint i en persikoton. Här har vi ett standardbubbel av fin kvalitet! Köp lådvis, detta är bra men klarat flera år!

Some bottles of this wine are really good, like this one - disgorged 2013 - it has all the energy of a young one, yet has the grace of some bottle aging.

Second bottle in a month, disgorged 2014, but much better than the other one, fresh and vibrant, had preserved all the energy and in addition a touch more complex - brought a lot of joy on the table.

Disgorged 2014, slightly evolved overall appearance, I like it both ways when freshly released and also with couple of years in a bottle. Very good quality for this price.

this tastes like real champagne, made by chardonney in the traditional champagne way of making sparkling wine, as good as a standard plain champagne, at half the price, fruity, dry, fine bubbles, long aftertaste, delicious wine that you should test blind against real champagne

One of the best qpr sparklers on the market. 100% chardonnay, fresh apples with well structured bubbles for immediate fun.

It is another good Italian sparkler, good weight on the palate, nice complexity from the chardonnay, not the very elegant but charmer on its own - great qpr.

Soft. Large bubbles. Lots of buttery sitrus flavours. Did not come across completely dry. Refreshing and easy to like. Good value

Pale straw color with fine, relaxed bubbles. Nose: pear, toffee, toasty biscuit. Mild effervescence on the palate: caramel apple with notes of smoky toast, lemon peel, and honeysuckle. Good focused acidity. Chalky, slightly oceanic minerality coming through on the clean finish. A little on the short side. A relatively complex, tasty bubbly. Excellent value.

Dry and rich. Good body and full of flavor, but not much fruit, a little oily.

No tasting notes, but we really liked this. Very good QPR.

Light, atonal and a touch astringent this was a cacophony mess of bitter lemon, dish soap and green apple notes. While perhaps better with food, this lacked both the balancing sweetness and required structure to stand on its on it own.
Taster #2223 · Mar 30, 2008
Absolutely awesome QPR at $7. Drinks at 2 or 3X it's price. Dry, nice minerality. Doesn't taste over-dosed. Reminded me a bit of a Cava. I will definitely buy this again.

Aroma of green apple, peach, hint of vanilla. Palate has apples peaches, some sweetness, slight bitterness on the finish that disappears with food. Drank this with Spanish cuttlefish chickpea stew. Nice combo. This was a real value.

I have had this sparkler before and it is pretty tasty (esp. at this price point), but as it was new years i 'm not able to gove an accurate tasting not at this time! This is my current house bubbly.
