• My review: This wine was bought by my parents as as a celebratory drink for me taking the GRE and getting pretty good scores on it. For most of the sparkling wines that I have had the all taste around the same as I have not been able to taste the super expensive bottles so I am left with some more barefoot. On the nose this wine is hard to smell anything over the carbonation and bubbles that pop in your nostrils. There was not much of other smells since I had to remove my nose from the champagne flute beach of the burning feel. On the palate the wine is very refreshing and lively. Each sip had a ton of carbonation that wakes you up. There are not many flavors that I was able to detect, it tasted a lot like soda water which I do like. There was no alcoholic burn which was nice and there was a very slight citrus zest flavor that made it more acidic. There were also slight fruit notes but I could not detect what they were as the bubbles on my tongue kept distracting me. Overall a nice soda water wine that would taste better in a mimosa. 
• Food Pairing: I had some chocolates with this wine but there was not much flavor change with them and it distracted from the chocolate taste.
