Briny lemon, dried apricot and hints of dried pineapple are eclipsed by ginkgo and light rye bread, cantaloupe and lime; Gardenia and white pepper with lillies. Exquisite mouthfeel, of tangerine, clementine, orange blossom, ripe lemon, creamy lemon panna cotta, white pomegranate seeds, olive cameo that dissipates into a sea spray and Northwest oyster with briny sweetness. #HappyNewYear #Champagne #growerschampagne #growersblend #bubbles #Palmerandcompany #Reims #brutréserve #brut #palmer #sparkler #frenchwines #france — a year ago

Caviar Day!! Tropical notes of dry pineapple, lemon zest and lemon verbena, with brioche and cooked egg white, iris, cocktail peanut, and English muffin aromas. Chalky textured on the palate with bright, medium mouthfeel and dry tangerine and pomelo accenting Meyer lemon and starfruit with lingering lemon blossoms and cumquat. #Haton #JeanNoëlHaton #Champagne #Damery #brut #vintage #2005 #sparkling #bubbles #caviar #caviarday #NationalCaviarDay — a year ago

Biscuits on the nose. Grapefruit and lemon extract. Sunflower husks, grilled carrot, cornflower, lemon bread, and a folding of butterscotch pudding over diatomaceous earth, lime leaf and chalk. Hard soda bread crust with exquisite lemon pulp and pith interplay. White pepper, iron shavings, salt and lime. Intensely balanced and intricate in its nuances. #Haton #Champagne #blancdeblancs #bubbles — 2 years ago

Interesting airy lemon and neutral merengue aromas with powdered pineapple, and dried lime, clementine pith and light toast. Lime zest and delicate lemon on the palate, chalky mineral character, showing underripe apricot, green strawberry, white carnation petal, lemongrass and lime zest. Incredible wine at an unbelievable price. #Bulliat #crémantdebourgogne #AvilleMorgon #brutnature #brut #bubbles #bubblesonabudget #sparklingwine #bubblesforlife #bubblesalldamnday #bubbles4thepeople #bubblesareagirlsbestfriend — a year ago

Funky bunch bordering on sulfur dissipated to well water, then to a buttery jasmine with notes of grapefruit zest and desert nettle. Ripe, gelatinous citrus lineup of grapefruit, lime, lemon, persimmon and yeast-wheat bread with a dry, gingery,substantial finish. #Giorgi #bubbles #topzero #GiorgiTopZero #sparklingwine #OltrepoPavese #italianwines #Italian #wine #northernitalianwines — a year ago

Started as a strawberry icing on yellow cake which is odd for extra brut, but this 2005 has some age on it. It turns to soft strawberry compost, pineapple pulp and shortbread cookie, becomes bright marigolds and honeysuckle pollen ,then suddenly croissant becomes primary, forgetting its sweet infancy like a whiff from a patisserie. The palate is calcareous, navel orange-lemon splash, tart, dried lime, and crystalline ginger. Chalky, and delicious. #metodoclassico #valentino #brutzero #bubbles #sparkling #Itsliansparkler — a year ago

Finest mousse. Lightest peach, lemon pith, ripe ginkgo, lime, persimmon, orchid concentrate and tangerine-thyme aromatically. Creamy mousse plays chalky with tangerine and lemon oil across the tongue seductively. Lime zest, lychee, apricot and a pure single drop of ripe lemon juice connects the creamy finish in a lovely way. Really an amazing wine with the complex nuances of a lively tête-à-tête with a stunningly beautiful lady. #CadelBosco #bubbles #franciacorta #Brut #Chardonnay #sparklingwine — a year ago

Black cherry, cherry blossom, carnation and a lime and lemon with a lemongrass touch, on a fresh strawberry nose, salted watermelon, lemon zest and nearly ripe strawberry, raspberry, and tangerine pith. Absolutely made for sushi! #franciacorta #methodoclassico #bubbles #RicciCurbastro #sparkling #spumante #rose #rosébrut — a year ago
