Lively, frothy, yeasty, elegant stone fruit, ripe grapefruit, subtle stewed red fruit. Such a fresh nose that it made my mouth water, instantly! Like a big bowl of chopped apples topped with apple blossom. White peaches and cinnamon spice, a dab of honey and white petals. Firm white-linen texture giving the wine a lovely grip under the bubbles. Limpid all the way through the finish.
