Van Loveren Christina Cap Classique Brut Sparkling NV

93 | White nectarine/peach but looks a little candied? Though plenty of fruit giving a bold, ripe character. Well judged autolysis. Low dosage gives a definite crispness to the palate.

94 | Engaging nutty, lemon curd and cream nose. Bright, lemon zest and hint of cream, decent texture and focus. Pure.

90 | Some attractive autolysis here, touch of sweetness on palate. Nic e NV style.

95 | Mid-depth straw hue, fine bead. Complex bouquet of brioche, toast and lemon zest. Crisp, fresh and lively, with an excellent cut of wet-stone acidity and a gentle, integrated mousse leading to a long finish.
