@Delectable Wine this is the 2013 Reserve. It was not in the database. This is a nice English sparkler. Very fruit forward with younger yellow fruit. Nice bubbles. Did not appear to be too small or big in the glass. Peaches, mango, melon. Kind of herbal towards the finish. Steered away from the tropical side. Really nice and balanced. Wondering if the 89 rating is stigma driven (hint: it is). This is right in line to Champagne offerings that are a 91-92 without thinking twice. This one didn't take long to disappear. Wish I had a couple more of these, but no such luck.
