Tasting amazingly fresh and vibrant at age 15.
Thinking that (most) U.S. sparklers show limited age ability I was educated here as this should easily hold up to and improve for another 10+ years in a cold cellar.
VERY IMPRESSIVE!

Fabulous after 20 years. Took 15 min for a sour-tartness to mellow out, but it was delicious with fruity, flinty, and bready notes… wish we had more!

The swan song of S. Anderson, made by David Desante and disgorged and finished by Michelle Edwards. Storch-a-moly, that's tasty.
