A Vintage Assessments Explorer's Selection! |
Awarded a Silver Medal at the 2009 Concours GÈnÈral in Paris. TASTING NOTE: Made from high-acid chenin blanc rather than pinot noir and chardonnay, the main grapes of Champagne, this dry sparkling wine serves up a core of orchard fruit, notably apple and poached pear, but the treat is in the slate-like essence and electric zing. Beautifully made. Score - 90 (Beppi Crosariol, The Globe and Mail, Dec. 2011) |
