The wine appears a lovely antique rose with onion skin coppery highlights, enhanced by very leisurely bead of pin point bubbles. The bouquet is delicate and ultra-fragrant, releasing nuances of wild berry fruit, citrus, and rose petals. The palate, stylish and well balanced, gradually reveals a refreshing acidity, and concludes with a finish marked by redcurrant, sweet almond, and wild berryfruit.
James Suckling, 93 points
A copper-colored sparkling with aromas of crushed raspberries, dried strawberries, cherry stones and roasted almonds. It’s medium-bodied with bright, zesty acidity and fine bubbles. Sleek, tight and fresh with excellent length and focus. Dry. Drink now.
