It's not often a wine has more acidity than champagne, but here's one. Could do with some more sugar to balance that acidity, but there are still lovely complex aromas of apples, pears, and brioche.

Green apple, caramel, zesty acid. One of the loveliest English sparklers I've had to date.

What an incredible introduction to real UK sparkling wine! I'm just blown away by the quality. Ridiculous. #valkyrieselections #swc

Great times on the deck w/ Stirlings. Perfect match with some caviar.

Fine minerality but a bit short n too oxidized for my taste. Reminds a little of cava.

Excellent expression of fruit & minerality. Dosage, at 10.5g/L, was noticeably too high for a tightly knit brut style.
