PRESS REVIEW: 

INDEPENDENT family producer new to Ireland has fashioned an incredible wine better than many bottles at twice the price.
Perfectly balanced, crowd-pleasing sparkler with a lovely mousse, aromas of citrus, stone fruit and sourdough. The palate is dry, creamy and crisp, with good acidity and flavours of dried fruit. Long lasting length with stunning tropical fruit on the finish. - On the Grape Vine - Matthew Nugent The Irish Sun
