Simonnet-Febvre Cremant NV

 Very pale gold color, very fine bead, and a nice yeasty nose. On the palate, medium mousse, followed by green apple and a few yeasty notes, with a very nice, long finish. Hand disgorged, 2 yrs on lees, 60 chard, 40 pinot noir, I am told. Decent and refreshing - not hugely opulent - on the fresh side, with acidity but not tart. A wonderfully well-balanced wine, with fine bubbles, a persistent foam and a well-developed length on the palate. Fresh and powerful bouquet with beautiful ripe yellow fruit aromas. Fresh clean nose. Minerals, citrus on the palate. This Crémant combines the finesse of Chardonnay and the power of Pinot Noir. This Cremant has a soft and delicate body with an almost forceful frizzante. Features notes of lime, grapefruit and muskmelon, with a hint of calcareous love. It's good. I'd pair this with something that would work well with the frizzante - like charcuterie. "This sparkling wine is the only one made in the Chablis region. That's a shame, because with its great toasty character, crisp yellow fruit flavors and its beautifully delicate mousse, there should be more like it in Chablis. " WE90.

Laetitia Brut Arroyo Grande NV

 Clean, nice bubbles, solidly made. It is fresh, energetic and slightly yeasty with a bright lemony note in its aromas and a correspondingly citrusy briskness to its youthfully vital flavors.

The result is a wine that is perfectly fresh and lively which carries on the tradition of elegance that Laetitia wines are famous for. The Laetitia Brut Cuvee is celebratory, crisp and irresistible, as only a sparkling wine should be! 90 Points, Wine News: Zesty citrus aromas with hints of lemon curd and minerals. Rich honeydew melon flavors with tart apple and apricot notes. Youthful acids spark the close with a drying minerality.

Bisol Prosecco Brut Crede 07

 85% Prosecco, 10% Pinot Bianco, 5% Verdiso . The wine is made from Prosecco, Verdiso and Pinot Bianco grapes grown on the steep hills of the Poderi Bisol. The first two varieties enjoy an ideal habitat in the clayey soils and subsoils of marine clay known as "crede" that are a common feature of the countryside. And those soils account for the name of this splendid Prosecco. The characteristics of this type of terrain are so special that the grapes benefit in numerous ways. They do not suffer from drought in the most critical periods and they develop unusual richness in terms of noble acids, varietal aromas and fruitiness. Brilliant straw yellow with a perlage consisting of a myriad of minute and persistent bubbles.  Scents of wildflowers that are appropriately Intense and fresh and an emerging and agreeable note of fruitiness. As in the bouquet, there are fruity hints of apples and pears and their harmony is completed by a rich and refined sapidity.

"Crede is among our favorite Proseccos year after year and the reason we love it so much is because of its sharp mineral focus and generous aromas of peach, honey and citrus. The wine offers balance and harmony with a floral flair and a bright, crisp close." - Wine Enthusiast

"Consistently one of the finest light-bodied, refreshing, crisp, pure Italian sparkling whites, Bisol's non-vintage Prosseco Crede reveals lovely citrus notes offered in an alluring, lively style. Enjoy it over the next year." - Robert Parker
