STYLE
The wine displays a pale straw colour, typical of a bubbly that enjoyed the benefits of extended lees maturation. Beautiful aromas of lime, crisp apple with freshly baked pastry, and toasted almonds on the nose. The palate is bright and zippy with vibrant acidity and a soft, creamy mouthfeel.

SERVING
Perfect with smoked salmon, oysters and seafood dishes.
