Well, actually, there's a good chance you'd be missing out. In all honesty I only picked up this bottle because of the promised 'brioche' flavours advertised on the label. I'm very partial to enriched bakery products, so distilling this into a bottle of wine seemed like manna from heaven.
On this point I am rather disappointed- the promised brioche has failed to materialise on this particular palette. However in all other respects this is a pleasant glass of wine. It's nicely fizzy without feeling gassy and somewhere between a typical brut and demi-sec. I'm normally a proponent of very dry wines but I am somewhat more flexible in the presence of bubbles and found the very slight sweetness rather appealing.
As a hardened Cava and Prosecco girl I will admit I approached this wine looking only to criticise. However, now I've tried it I would definitely buy it again. 7/10
