| Likeness | A dry sparkling brut in a smaller frame: bready, green apple, and a brief citrus close. Lower in body than a traditional brut, and cleanly cut. The likeness is the dryness and the bread, not the depth. | Acidity and bubbles give it a sparkling-wine shape; the finish leans slightly sweet rather than dry. |
