| Gold Medal winner at the 2018 National Wine Awards of Canada. TASTING NOTE: A very fine Blanc de Blancs sparkling made with Chardonnay in the traditional Champenoise method. Beautiful sensations of bubbles in the mouth with a creamy and fine texture. Delicate and elegant but I would have preferred more dosage for a better balance. Very persistent in the finale. Score - 91 (Sara d'Amato, winealign.com, July 17, 2018) |
