Tasting notes

Delicate yet complex nose, with hints of citrus fruit, and a good balanced palate.

Rating

Wine Enthusiast 89 points A fine bead in the glass, it shows a bit more warm, round fruit than in previous bottlings, leading into a slightly bitter finish of citrus rind, lime zest and wet stone. Score: 89. —Paul Gregutt, December 01, 2006.  Wine Spectator 88 points A light-weight, delicate bubbly, with floral and apple notes married to a lithe and lively profile. It has moderate length. Ideal as an aperitif. Drink now. Score: 88. —Bruce Sanderson, November 30, 2006.
