75cl bottle from Chester Beer & Wine. Pours gold with a faint mist. Very lightly fruity nose. Thin to taste and quite dry for a brut, could be a lot fruitier, and certainly there seems to be much better in Normandy.

Bottle from Fountainhall Wines, Aberdeen. It pours fairly clear pale orange with a small fizzy white head. The fairly sweet, powdery apple, fizzy candy, apple sherbet, apple skin, earthy, hay and oak. The taste is crisp, dry, bitter - sweet initially, leafy, earthy, apple skin, powdery, vinous, sweet apple wine, fizzy candy / sherbet, light acidity and touch of tannin with a dry finish. Medium body and moderate, fizzy / effervescent carbonation. Maybe a touch sweet?, but pretty classy stuff anyhow.
