"This is, not surprisingly, actually quite similar to the Pure but with just a bit more complexity and a hair more toastiness. This is also intensely effervescent with a mouth feel that is exceptionally vibrant before culminating in clean, cool, persistent and impressively refreshing finish. This is a pleasure to drink and it could be enjoyed now or held for additional development though I like the energy if offers now. A fine value." (09/12)

"Pale gold. Minerals, lemon rind, green apple and white pepper aromas show very good clarity. Racy, somewhat austere and sharply focused, with vibrant citrus fruit flavors leavened by subtle lees and smoke notes. Finishes tight and long, with nervy acidity and lingering spiciness." (12/12)
"A mix of floral, apple and berry aromas and flavors highlight this firmly structured, elegant bubbly, which is harmonious and vibrant, with a lingering finish. Drink now through 2013. 7,000 cases imported. -BS"
