Tasting notes 
An easy drinking soft and well-rounded sparkling that makes a great party wine. It has a pale golden colour and a soft layer of bubbles, with a fresh and fruity nose showing hints of light summer fruits and white flowers. On the palate soft apple and citrus notes are accompanied by a fresh acidity and persistent mousse for an off-dry finish. A crisp and refreshing bubbly.
