"FRESH & CRISP" - we know one should not refer to alcoholic beverages as invigorating, but this Brut is exceptionally fresh and crispy with a smooth cream center. Aromas include an enticing combination of apple blossoms, lemon custard with a beam of both vanilla crème and roasted hazelnut, with a touch of fresh squeezed extra virgin Spanish olive oil!

Tasting notes

The flavors are a fresh, crisp version of white peach, ripe apple, baked pastry with a mango-vanilla-yeast bouquet. The tartness is pleasantly wrapped into a sweet fruit finish.

Rating

Subtle, spicy and refreshing for its distinctive lime, apple and black pepper aromas and flavors that linger enticingly on the finish. Has elegance and style. Drink now. 8,757 cases made. Wine Spectator 89 points (Apr 30 1999)
