Rather yeasty, with sweet, candied citrus aromas. To the eye, it bubbles like a fountain, and in the mouth it’s foamy. The flavor profile is apple and tart berries, while the finish is fairly mute but clean. Very good on its own but in the realm of top-flight vintage Champagne, it doesn’t make the penthouse grade. Imported by Pasternak Wine Imports. ——M.S.(12/31/2005)—— 88
