Named Best Sparkling Wine, Non-Vintage Brut at the 2018 Winemaker Challenge International Wine Competition. TASTING NOTE: Made predominantly from Pinot Noir, this is an easygoing, approachable sparkling wine, offering dry creamy layers of green apple, pear and strawberry. It also has a rich inviting mousse embedded with vanilla and marzipan. Score - 88 (Virginie Boone, Wine Enthusiast, Nov. 1, 2017) |
