Lot number MMX131212, perhaps a base year 2010 disgorged in 2013? Firm, screamingly delicious, fantastic grip on palate, lovely as always

Crisp green apples, tart pear, jicama, and a clean finish make this wine approachable and intriguing. A lovely addition to any meal.

Scrumptious little bubbly with ample lift and a neat bitterness that's kept in check by mineral fruit.

Loved this. Creamy, but still great racy acidity. Meringue baby. Pears and apples too.
