Toasty, brioche, bubbles keep it light on the palate.
We are never flying coach again.

Nose: mild chèvre, nuts, lemon meringue. A teeny bit of pastry. Bodes well. Taste: good, but a little grapey - a nice toastiness, a little salinity. Too much white grape juiciness. Not enough citrus acidity. Good, but not worth the upgrade to champagne for me. I’ll stick with my cremants. 88-89. EDIT: another reviewer mentioned baked yellow apple and that is dead on.

Erin: delicious, a bit sweet but quite adult. However, I was also drinking it right after getting engaged, so...

John: less dry than I'm used to, delicious. She said yes, so my judgement is currently suspect

Pale yellow color. Aromas of biscuit and hazelnut. Beautiful lemon custard notes, biscuit and small delicate, plentiful bubbles.

Small creamy bubbles, bright apple and floral notes with hints of Meyer lemon and a touch of mineral.
