Blanc de Bleu Cuvee Mousseux

COMMENTARY: I hate to admit it, but over 40 years in the wine business has turned me into a bit of an elitist. As I approached this blue bubbly, I was skeptical and not wanting to like it. When I tasted it, while it is not as dry as most "bruts," it was quite delicious and pleasurable. The Blanc de Bleu® Cuvée Mousseux is an attractive and well-made sparkling wine. I am now hoping to revert from my " wine geekiness." and to rejoin the rest of the real world. TASTING NOTES: This wine is fluorescent and translucent blue in its appearance— flamboyant to say the least, and asking me to put away my notebook, and enjoy. In the aroma and on the palate, this effervescent beverage shows apples and berries. Its medium sweet finish makes it a crowd-pleasing choice for social gatherings and light hors-d'oeuvres. I could see a perfect pairing with unagi.
