Blue Grouse Paula Methode Traditional 2014

British Columbia, CanadaThis is a BC designated sparkler with a 42.4/42.5/10/5 mix of muller-thurgau, ortega, pinot auxerrois and riesling (the latter two Okanagan-based) which helps explain the fresh lemon, green apple and a whiff of almonds. The attack is clean and vibrant with a refined mousse and an undercore of bright acidity. This is a food sparkler and I can’t think of a better start then with smoked salmon, goat cheese or fresh shucked oysters. Promising start; next up more complexity.Tasted: 13 October 2018Tasted by: Anthony GismondiPrices:
