Kept nice and low in dosage this is a beautiful domestic sparkler. Not terribly complex and without the "yeastyness" that I normally associate with Schramsberg, mouthwatering acidity and notes of green apples and crisp unripe pears keeps me coming back for another sip.

Another Riddler’s Circle selection that is past peak. At first taste, blech! I actually said that out loud. Went, WTF and looked it up and low and behold the exact same thing happened with the 2007. I drank the whole bottle and by the end of it I wanted more so at least it had that going for it.
