First day from fridge: Creamy texture, focused stone fruit flavor. Second day from fridge: Still creamy, but flavors expanded to add mineral and tree fruit complexity with firm acidity. Third day from fridge: Softly sparkling, with flavors narrowed to tart green apples, the final few sips reveal winemaking flair beyond bubbles. Serve chilled in a white-wine glass (not Champagne flute) to appreciate depth of flavor as a festive accompaniment to a wide range of cheeses and flavor-y appetizers for your New Year's Eve celebration and beyond.
