Crisp pear and red apple flavors are the initial attraction of this fresh sparkler.

"Pale green straw with a fine mousse and medium beads. Citrus aromas with slight petrol notes. Light fruit flavors on the palate and bone dry.”

Very pale, with very fine, lively bubbles; lemony citrus aroma with hints of toast, nuts and burnt sugar; delicate yeasty apple flavor. Excellent value.

Almonds and a strongly yeasty element are the main characters of this sparkling wine. It’s full, but the fruit still has a texture to it, leaving a good acidity to finish. Good value, enjoyable wine.

WineBuzz November/December 2006
------------------------------------------
Subtly toasty aroma with hints of lemon and delicate, lively mousse; light and refreshing with lemon-lime flavors and a crisp, bright finish.

Make your own or buy a package of roasted, salted pumpkin seeds at the grocery store and serve with a dry sparkling wine for a superb pairing. One bargain is the Marquis de la Tour non-vintage "Brut, Loire Valley."
