Shop Review: "Brilliant straw color with emerald reflections. Fresh and floral bouquet with a hint of pears, apricots, and bananas. Fresh and inviting with bright fruit and an easy drinking style with a pleasing hint of almonds in the aftertaste."
My Review: Pale golden in color, this bubbly champagne smelled of pears, apricots, and other stone fruits. In fact, there were lots of fruits on the nose; probably more than I could identify. It was a refreshing smell. Upon tasting, initially it was extremely bubbly - I could not taste anything! Then, it had a somewhat stinky, prominent aftertaste of strong potpourri. There were lots of floral notes, which made it feel like I was eating flowers mixed in with some really carbonated club soda. It was pretty good, and felt special to drink, so I would save this one for special events and occasions for sure. Was not paired with any food.
