To be honest it was no worse than any of the commercial sparkling New World pink Champagne mimics which tend to look the part but taste too sweet. Jacob's Creek is a good example. It can be a little yeasty which is good and sometimes the strawberry is nice but all too often you have a glass and it could be strawberry pop. The Gauthier only seemed worse because it's generally sold for £25.99 and even if it's no match for the likes of Krug etc it should still be a big step up on Jacob's Creek but it wasn't. Anyone for Prosecco ? |

Please ! Of those Sains / Tesco ones tried here....the price is the positive attribute in it's favour, good for parties.....other than that ? A virgin taken in Italy is probably quite nice though. |

We finished the last bottle of Elderflower fizz yesterday. This had mellowed into something quite special, light and lemony with a distinct fresh elderflower flavour, its a shame I'll never get to drink it again. I will be ramping up production this year hoping to further improve. 15ltr's should do it. |
