Reductive, green apples, bitter almond, and surprisingly small perlage. A surprise.

Had this wine at Marriott Palm Beach Club Hotel. Straw yellow with stone and citrus notes. Rapid bubbles. On the palate peach, Apple and pineapple hits a stride with a touch of minerality and fresh bread on the finish. Not bad but pricey at a hotel.

Light, fruity, dry. Easy drinker. Not much complexity. Definitely go with the Michelle Rosé.

63% Chardonnay, 19% Pinot Noir, 18% Pinot Gris. 11.5% alc.
Dry and crisp and a pleasant surprise (for a domestic sparkler). Nice value at $12!

A bit too strong and acidic for my tastes. Even the sparkle was a tad exaggerated.

Ripe granny apple, banana, white grape and mango fruit salad squeezed into a pretty bottle and a new label. Fun sparkling wine! Drink it! $10 / 86+pts

Pale yellow hue. Aromas of citrus, peach, and pear, with apple and minerals on the palate. Medium-minus body, with high acidity. Medium-short finish.

Dry, but perfectly balanced. Strong aromas of apple and pear. Excellent.
