Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Cristalino has always done well with crisp, straightforward Cavas. This attempt at something higher fails; it’s a cidery, flat wine without much kick, zest or bead. Chunky and lacking electricity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Jacquart makes a full-bodied, ripe style of Champagne, with tiny, effusive bubbles. Flavors of slightly overripe apples lead into a mature palate with hints of oxidation. Sherry, nuts, olive oil, vanilla and other less identifiable nuances meld into a rich, ripe, satisfying and complex whole.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Fragrant flower blossom aromas appear at first and do a fine job of portraying this delicate, feminine Extra Dry Prosecco. The wine is firm and tonic on the palate with a fresh blast of citrus zest on the close.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Encouraging aromas of bread dough and baked apple give way to a rubber note. Moderately flavorful in the mouth but somewhat mono-dimensional with a foamy mousse. Medium finish. Drink now.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Shows yeasty, earthy, dusty aromas, with just a slight trace of fruit. There are also mild fruity flavors. It’s slightly sweet as a semi-seco should be, but has adequate acidity and decent length finishing with some richness.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
An everyday sparkler with a nice toasted nuttiness mingling with solid and persistent baked green apple and citrus pith flavors. The mouth is creamy with fine carbonation and medium acidity. Drink now.

Bourgeois Family Sparkling Blend - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Crisp, clean and correct—nothing more or less. The palate pumps pure tangerine and apple flavors on the heels of fine, inoffensive bubbles. Balanced and tasty, but nothing fancy. Imported by Vias Imports.

Bisol Prosecco - NV

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
This single-vineyard Champagne is always at the summit in Champagne. The 1998 is just at the moment when the fresh fruits move into maturity. There is toast, almond and marzipan, while at the same time pink grapefruit crispness is still there. Drink it now for freshness; keep for many years for maturity.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Beautiful young bubbly, light and elegant, with Chardonnay flavors of peaches and limes, enriched with leesy dough and smoky spice. The texture is ultrarefined, with a very fine mousse. This is one of the best, most complex Chandon bruts in a long time.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Well balanced from start to finish, with rubbery, attractive aromas that also offer some smoke and cream nuances. The palate is crisp and packed densely with ripe fruit, primarily sweet apple. Its mouthfeel is a strong point.
