Tasting Notes
The nose opens with the crunchy freshness of tart Red Delicious apples, more air then reveals an alluring edge of candied tangerine peel. The palate presents a contoured, taut body that, after the first crunch of freshness, opens into a notion of ripe, aromatic, generous fruit. It is again that notion of aromatic ripeness paired with tartness that is so reminiscent of candied, high-toned citrus. The calling-card creaminess of Bollinger comes with exuberance and energy here, the fine mousse highlighting the crystalline nature and precision of the wine. What a tonic.
