94 pts. Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Disgorged in November 2018, Ayala's 2013 Brut Blanc de Blancs offers up an elegant bouquet of lemon oil, English walnuts, crisp yellow apples, linden blossom and hints of praline to come with bottle age. On the palate, it's medium to full-bodied, deep and concentrated, with racy acids, a delicate mousse and a fine-boned, elegant profile. Concluding with a...

Wine Enthusiast - 89 pts. Dusty, leesy aromas of apple and vanilla are sturdy. This brut Cava is fresh and modestly elegant on the palate, with lime, apple and tarragon flavors. A dry, confident finish offers apple and citrus flavors and a sense of ease. MICHAEL SCHACHNER

92 points Wine Spectator - This Champagne offers an array of flavor, including toasted brioche, Gala apple, lemon zest, graphite and ginger, with a touch of honey. Elegant, but with good intensity and a moderate, nut-tinged finish.

This is a fresh and pleasant champagne, made so as to bring the Chardonnay to the fore, combining its vivacity with ripe fruit notes and the characteristic structure of Pinots. Elegance is the primary quality of this cuvée thanks to a rigorous selection of crus and a light dosage that is altered for each disgorgement. A champagne for celebration! This cuvée is available in medium-dry, in which...

87 pts. Wine Enthusiast This sparkling wine has a smooth, creamy mousse and perfumed apple and pink-grapefruit fruitiness. Light minerality gives texture, enhanced by the bright, crisp acidity and aftertaste.

88 pts. Wine Enthusiast Freshly dried straw, soft toast, lightly grilled yellow apple and a touch of dried lemon peel form the nose of this dry, attractive sparkler. The palate is bright and bubbly, with initially aggressive carbonation that mellows fast on the palate and yields a round, ripe yellow orchard-fruit flavor. Smooth and clean, the finish leaves you ready for more.

90 points - Tasting Panel Bright pink color with juicy strawberry nose; dense and fresh with good balance and style. 100% Pinot Noir at 12% ABV. From New Mexico. Very solid producer.

91 pts. Tasting Panel Smooth with generous fruit and fine bubbles: fresh, juicy, and clean with a tangy style; a delightful wine and an amazing value.

producer notes - When champagne is too much & beer not enough, like today. Lakewood’s Candeo is lightly fruity, on the verge of dry. Edgy. Scintillating. Fun! Serve chilled.

Fine bubbles form a large string against a golden background. A fruity nose and delicious, persistent barley sugar and brioche flavors. A very lively wine! A blend of 60% Pinot Noir, 30% Pinot Meunier, and 10% Chardonnay.

Winemaker Notes Deep pink color with aromas of fresh strawberry and raspberry. Creamy and rich on the palate with more berry flavors and a slight touch of wood, and surprising lightness in the mouth. Long, velvety finish. Belaire Luxe Rosé is excellent as a chilled aperitif, with or without ice and fresh fruit, and pairs well with cheeses and desserts. Blend: 80% Syrah, 15% Grenache, 5% Cinsault

Winemaker Notes A dramatically beautiful sparkling rose: a rich, vibrant pink color. A rich red fruit bouquet precedes an elegant palate of strawberry andblack currant, resulting in a perfect harmony of aroma, taste, body,and finish: refreshing but not too sweet. A delicious, delicate blend of three of France's most famous rose grapes: Syrah, Cinsault, and Grenache, aged for the perfect...

86 pts. Wine Enthusiast Soda pop-like on the nose, with a clear reference to Sprite and 7Up. The palate is somewhat candied and simple, but it has good feel and the flavors of lemon-lime are likable. Mild on the finish, with flavors that extend from the lemon-lime bouquet and palate.

Wine Spectator - 91 pts. A rich note of grilled nut meets flavors of Asian pear, preserved lemon and mineral on the palate of this creamy Champagne, driven by a firm streak of refreshing acidity. Drink now through 2022

Ice Imperial is a deep gold color with amber highlights and powerful aromas of tropical fruits (mango, guava), stonefruits (nectarine), and a note of raspberry. On the palate there is a broad, fleshy, voluptuous flavor of fresh fruit salad, the captivating sweetness of caramel and quince jelly, and the refreshing acidity of grapefruit and ginger notes.

91 pts. Wine Spectator An aperitif-style Champagne, with flavors of crème de cassis, lemon curd and pastry riding a creamy mousse and framed by crisp, well-knit acidity. Drink now through 2020.

Winemaker Notes Pleasant fruit aromas and a bright, clear color. The taste sensation in the mouth is very pleasant, light and well balanced, fresh and very cheerful feeling, good persistence, with fruit and flower notes. The aftertaste invites you to continue savoring the wine.

91 pts. Wine Spectator This is lacy in texture, featuring a firm frame of acidity and a smoke-tinged underpinning. Offers flavors of poached quince, toast and pickled ginger, with a crisp, citrusy finish. Drink now through 2020.

"Primo Amore, or first love expresses the joy of discovery experienced when a wine drinker first encounters the sweetness and enticing fragrance of the delicate wine. Moscato wine (sometimes spelled as Muscato), comes from the Muscat grape, which is a sweet, white grape and from it we get delicious snacks such as the actual grape and raisins and beautiful, sweet and delicate wines of a number of...

Winemaker Notes - Saint-Hilaire Brut displays aromatic flavors of peach, pear and green apple skins with a wonderful, full, creamy mouthfeel. Think non vintage Champagne for a fraction of the cost.

92 points James Suckling This has attractive complexity with honey, chamomile and toasted bread, ahead of bright, light pink grapefruit and berries. The palate has a very succulent and juicy feel with the same blend of pink-fruit flavors. Fresh crunch of acidity. A blend of 81% pinot noir and 19% chardonnay. Drink now.

Wine Enthusiast - 85 pts. Toasted hazelnut and apple flavors infuse this wine's light- to medium-bodied frame, which comes with a coarse, foamy bead.

DESCRIPTION Virginia Fizz is a fun and festive sparkling wine, great for all life’s celebrations. It is cremant style made of 100% Chardonnay. Packed with apples and peach flavors, the wine has a very creamy and smooth texture. The myriad of tiny bubbles will tickle your taste buds. Refreshing on its own, but perfect mixed as a cocktail!

92 pts. James Suckling Some oyster shell, berry biscuits, fresh strawberries and gently toasty brioche here. Lots to like. The palate is plump and flavorsome with plenty of berries and citrus intertwined. Good depth here. Grapefruit finish.

Wine & Spirits - 93 pts. This is the same base wine as Yellow Label, with the addition of 12 percent red wine to boost the color and the wine’s depth of wild raspberry flavor. It’s Burgundian-rich, a pinot noir as a serious Champagne with complexity, muscular structure and vinous length of spicy fruit.

Made with Pinot Noir, this Cremant Rose has great roundness and texture. Hints of nice pink reflections are supported by an elegant effervescence. Delicate red fruit character with an expressive bouquet of cherry, cassis, and raspberry. Fresh and fruity with soft and mature tannins embedded in a delicate sweetness. This sparkler is an invitation to festive occasions.
