Thanks to my friend Chris for this one. This Ontarian Sparkling has a longer lasting creamy-bubbly head than most. It has a very sweet nose with loads of apples and notes of oranges. The taste is not as sweet, but more on the sour side with lots of citrus. The oranges are still present with hints of honey and pears, but again, not too sweet, definitely not syrupy. This sparkling has bite, which is quite nice and is different from most Sparkling wines. The mouthfeel being on the wet side helps out with all the fruit to have a nice finish.

Rating: 3.8/5
