I'm honestly really surprised this isn't more highly rated on here. IMO, this is possibly the best sub-$20 traditional method bottle of bubbles I've been able to find thus far. This kicks the SHIT out of most of the larger Champagne houses basic cuvées for a third of the cost. Bruised yellow apple, toasty brioche, crushed chalk, a bit of nutmeg, some pleasant oxidative nuttiness that comes off as toasted walnuts to me, pastry dough, and just a bit of lemon curd action as well. It's a Brut Nature so it's very dry with sizzling acidity, although I wouldn't describe it as austere, really. Fine bead of bubbles gives a nice, creamy texture. Honestly, like, it's almost ridiculous to get this level of quality in a $16.99 bottle of bubbles. Stock up if you can find it. Always happy when I pop a bottle of this stuff.
