It's official: I really really hate J bubbles. This is their XB Extra Brut, but even when J bubbles are dry, they're sweet. Cloying flabby expensive junk. Not to put too fine a point on it.

Sweet cream, white flowers, brioche on the nose. Tiny bubble and bright acidity on the palate causes the flavor to layer. Lemon curd, English muffin (lightly toasted), lime leaf flavors. Finishes slightly yeasty.
