Lightly yeasty and toasty scents meld with notes of hazelnut and dried orchard fruits on the nose. In the mouth this is a bit coarse with an intense core of fruity apple, nectarine and citrus fruits. The finish is pretty short but offers a hint of marzipan to help add some contrast. 86pts

This is a really nice inexpensive bottle. Notes of yeast on the nose and on entry, followed by crisp apple and sour dough. Overall, this bottle was very elegant for this price point.

    Love to have this in the house for impromptu celebrations, and I always love to visit when I am up in Napa.

    This is okay not as creamy complex as the french version but enjoyable everyday wine.

    This medium-to-full-bodied sparkler has a mouthfeel that is at once gravelly and richly smooth andmdash; go figure. Granny Smith apples and granite-slate aromas play on the nose; on the palate, the same Granny Smith notes are swathed in dusty-earthy flavors. Though the back palate shows a little toast and cream, the wineandrsquo;s finish is more zippy, tangy citrus than oaky.

    White Star, a balanced blend of the three vine varieties, reveals a harmonious succession of sensations, a soft maturity, elegant lines, offering you sensations which can be shared and celebrated at any time. Quality: Extra-dry. Assemblage:

    This wine offers the balance and elegance that has become Chandon's hallmark style. When you taste Brut Classic, look for nutty flavors with hints of brioche that build to a refreshing dry finish. The wine delivers complex apple and pear

    Chandon’s basic brut is balanced and harmonious, with flavors of citrus, pear, raspberry and vanilla, and an engaging edge of dough and smoky oak. Basically dry, but with a sweetly ripe dosage that makes it round and creamy. Best of all, it avoids sharpness, and is smooth.

    A slightly less-dry Cuvée; more delicate and fruity.

    Round and fruity, like a good Mâcon Chardonnay. Shows apple and berry flavors in a soft yet balanced frame. Drink now. -BS Wine Spectator. A Champagne Blend wine from Champagne in France. N.V. Moet Chandon White Star NV 375ml
