Grandin Brut, France - Medical Association Dinner 27/10/05


Cocktail Reception
Wine - Grandin Brut, France
Alcohol: 11.5%
Clean, medium intensity, yellow gold. The welcome wine has a colorless watery rim, a few legs & big bubbles. It has a clean, light, youthful nose, which has nutty & toasted almond aromas. On palate it is dry, high acidity, light-medium in body, medium intensity. Bubbles are large & are creamy in texture. The wine is refreshingly fruity, citrus, apple, with a nutty flavour probably contributed by the oak ageing, a hint of spice. It has a clean finish, with medium alcohol level & a medium length. The wine is acceptable, & is ready to drink now.
