Had this about 3 years ago, tried a new batch. First released in 1985. A blend of 85% Pinot Noir and 15% Chardonnay, this Méthode Champenoise wine shows stone fruit aromas and toasty biscuit notes. The palate shows crisp Apple and juicy pear flavors, lively acidity, creamy mousse and good steady stream of tiny bubbles. The finish is medium and leaves some mineral and yeasty notes. Nice CA bubbly.

Green apple. Quite one dimensional but nice acidity. Paired with a bruschetta with some sweet aged balsamic vinegar. #wbc18

Hey, not bad. You get some apple and pear. You get a little yeasty bread (let's not call it brioche). You get lots of fine bubbles. No regrets opening this anytime.
[Note: One should not have regrets opening sparkling wine of any quality at any time for any reason. More bubbles in our lives, please!]
