Brioche on the nose, with green apple and soft oak accents on the palate. Tertiary notes of saline and mushrooms complicate what is an elegant package.

Cheers from Bergen, Norway! An absolute picturesque spot for our vacation. Tonight, we visited Altona, a 400-yr old spot that has received 9 straight Wine Spectator awards for their phenomenal wine list.
This was a really nice champagne. Great QPR. Impressive bubble lines followed straight to the middle. No overpowering fruits. Crisp kiwi. 👌

Sometimes you just want the usual comforts without sacrificing any quality. The customary pale gold in the glass with a creamy mousse and abundant perlage. A very easy going and aromatic nose of citrus fruit and floral accents. Pencil shavings, pears, and biscuits. As far as entry level bottles, this is head and shoulders above many. Not lacking in elegance or balance whatsoever.

Impeccably fresh with a luscious mouthfeel and classy structure. This improves considerably after some time in the glass. The palate follows the nose closely with more floral and yeast notes. A little elderberry, honey, and green apples to compliment. Long refined finish. Really nice and pleasant from first sip to the last.

It is necessary to serve it to more than 50% of glasses, then we can enjoy bubbles. It takes a time for aroma and taste to come out. Finally, found enough acidity with nuts flavor. @1650, Winepluss - Sheraton, 180601-180605
