Yummy. All around classic Champers at a great value. The beads rising in the glass seem very intense and I'm sure would last for hours - like I gave it the chance. Toasty, yeasty, sourdough, caramel apple and lemon brulee on the nose. The mouth feel is incredible, soft soft bubbles that foam on the tongue. Great balance of richness and acidity. This bottle did not last long. Tasted Feb 2013.
