So much richer and rounder than I expected. Quite toasty shortbread on the nose. Tasty stuff Monsieur Piuze!

Non dosage. From Chablis. Quite the sparkling. Drier and fruitier than anything else I've had from champagne or the like.

Who am I to argue with the label? Quality sparkling wine. Enjoyed on Christmas Day. In a hot tub. At 2:00 pm. Ish.

Beautiful nose but a bit disjointed on the palate. Seems it could have benefited from a lil dose.

Slight oxidation on the nose creamy texture with bright acidity.
