Blind reaction:
First taste drew an immediate “classical” from Abe. Initially shy, but clearly promising, it blossomed beautifully with some air and time.
The inside scoop:
Post-reveal was no shock, as this is one of Abe's go-to non-Champagne sparkling wines. Made from biodynamically farmed Gringet grapes in France’s eastern Savoie region, it has Alpine crispness and minerality, plus depth from extended lees aging.
