BRUT SPARKLING Méthode Traditionnelle, Austria |
Vintage Assessments Tasting Note |
Producer |
SCHLUMBERGER |
Very light straw colour. Very slightly spicy, faintly honeyed, ripe apple-lemon nose. Very dry, medium-light bodied, slightly honeyed, tangerine-melon-lemon flavours with a lingering, crisp, mineral-tinged, very effervescent finish. A huge improvement in this Austrian 100% Welschriesling sparkler since it last appeared in Vintages (*+) on August 4, 2012 at $16.95. The lot number L121617 appears on the back label. It’s ready-to-drink. |

Schlumberger has been producing sparkling wines for 173 years, making it the oldest sparkling wine producer in Austria. Created with 100% Welschriesling (no relation to Riesling), this refreshing traditional method sparkler is great with seafood or ideal for everyday sipping. |
