Cranberry, dried strawberry, raspberry toffee, very big and toasty. I think this is the biggest champagne I have had to date.

Light gold color with plenty of active tiny bubbles with yeast, ginger, raspberry, citrus, white flower, chalk aromas with a nuanced oxidation. On the palate, it's full bodied, and fresh with a delicate creamy mousse and raspberry, orchard fruit, and tangerine flavors with a chalky minerality and a long finish.

Excellent example of low dosage matched to ripe fruit.

Big ol red berries like Tom Haverford’s insoles. Downright reasonable balance, & a dope afternoon treat. Great for the price, & I reckon I’ll try & get up in these bubbles again.
