Pale lemon yellow with green tinges. Green apple, dried flowers, and prominent lees notes. Crisp, clean, and mineral on the palate. Great QPR. 11.5% ABV.

Kara loves it. Nice and fresh. Dry without puckering the mouth hole.

Made a cava sangria with this, perfect for that.

Could taste some of the potential but unfortunately the bottle was improperly stored and was corked when opened

This is a review of the 187ml bottle. First sip: recently used pink erasers. Just on the edge of vinegar. Second sip: doesn't suck, but the aftertaste is like that of cheap pear-flavored candy. Funny enough, this is the first wine I have brought home that my husband didn't immediately taste Sharpie marker from! 😂 He tastes yeast at the bottom of the little bottle. No vintage date, just lots of stamped batch codes. I wouldn't refuse it at a party, but I look forward to finding superior champagne-style value offerings!
