Ultimate Recommendation

Tasting Note:

The pinpoint mousse is delightfully prickly, clean, and refreshingly acidic. First nosings discover multiple layers of baker's yeast, sourdough, buttered toast, and lemon peel. In the mouth, the flavor profile explodes with stone dry, seed-like tastes of ripe grapes, citrus, sesame seed. The silky texture elegantly wraps the entire sensory experience with substance and class. Top-notch luxury.
