This outstanding sparkling wine was hand-riddled and has zero dosage. The 2005 Gran Reserva is medium straw-colored with persistent small bubbles. It has a lovely nose of mineral, green apple, and pear followed by a crisp, intense, dry wine with excellent length. It is better than the majority of non-vintage Champagnes as well as less expensive.
