Verdict A light, gently fruity sparkler with green apple, pear, and citrus aromas, bright acidity, lively bubbles, and a slightly sweet finish. Research record French alcohol-removed blanc de blancs from Villa à la Mer. The process is published. The glass is a gentle bead and very little flavor.

Likeness Acidity and bubbles give it a sparkling-wine shape; the finish leans slightly sweet rather than dry. Research record It is built as removed wine. It does not taste like blanc de blancs, or like much wine at all.
