| 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. | Sparkling in the gentle fizz more than in the wine. Soft citrus, a creamy edge, a nutty hint, light apple fruit, a little sweetness, no sharp edges. The bubbles do the closing, and it is short. | Research record |
