Gosh. What a unique wine. Turning into liquid gold. Exquisite balance. Cashews and coconut with a round golden apple and pineapple flavor. Roast coffee. Mousse shows refreshing quality to the wine and the small bubbles form several chains up to top.

Really nice. One of my favorites of the night. Lengthy vinous feel and flavors, firing on all cylinders! Disgorged 12/15

Aromas of brioche, red apple skins and cloves. Follows through the same on the palate. Good acidity and elegance in the tiny bubbles.
