Sparkling Beaujolais (Gamay).
Bottled: 25 February 2014
Disgorged: 21 July 2015
Last of (4) bottles bought in 2016. Buy these and drink within a year or two from disgorgement. This bottle is in decline today, no longer fresh and lively, what I enjoy typically about this $24 bottle.
Toasted brioche, cooked pear, short finish, acidity faded. Nice bottle, but diminished.

$24, blind you'd never know this wasn't full on Blanc de Noirs Champagne. Color is seductive rose gold.

Disgorged 9 October 2014, if I've had sparkling gamay before it was nothing like this, dead ringer for a blanc de noirs champagne, dry but incredibly rich and heavy, opulent, beyond serious wine for the price

This is gamay masquerading as a grower champagne. Quite surprised by this. Rich but still light on its feet. Love this.

Damn. This kills Blanc des Noirs at 3x the price. Phenomenal yeasty, baked brioche with gorgeous perlage. Thanks to @urbangrape in BOS for the recommendation.
