Consistent with the last bottle. Duchesse pears, wet grass, ripe pears meeting Dorblu, freshly sliced cucumbers, vanilla biscuits. A touch of gentle oxidation that adds rather than detracts - soft yellow apples, mild cinnamon, a peppery lift. There's an electric, naked acidity running through it, and some sake-like notes push it into natty territory - but the good kind. Beautiful perlage, full of finesse. Long, vibrant, genuinely compelling. Tender petillant with real depth, the kind that rewards attention without demanding it.
Delicate and complex. Duchesse pears, wet grass, ripe pears meeting Dorblu, freshly sliced cucumbers, vanilla biscuits. There's a touch of gentle oxidation that adds rather than detracts - soft yellow apples, mild cinnamon, peppery sensation. The perlage is beautiful, full of finesse. Long, vibrant, genuinely compelling. This is tender stuff with real depth, the kind of pétillant that rewards attention without demanding it. Very tasty, properly sophisticated.
