Although Alison Napjus reviewed a sample from a specific disgorgement date, this non-vintage bubbly is made in a consistent style and will show consistent characteristics. TASTING NOTE: Tropical hints of papaya and passion fruit pâte de fruit are enlivened by bright and tangy acidity, layered on the lively bead with flavors of Gala apple, blanched almond and fresh ginger. Well-knit and vibrant, with a sleek, minerally finish. Disgorged January 2015. Drink now through 2018. Score - 91 (Alison Napjus, winespectator.com, Dec. 15, 2015) Price $ 39.95
