Moorilla, Muse, Extra Brut, Tasmania, 2018

Pale lemon hue with green youthful highlight. Fine bead and fast bubbles. Delicate aromas with nougat, brioche, lemon pith, green apple, chalk, sea spray and a gentle honeyed sweetness. Tight and fine palate and subtle mousse. Lingering chalky phenolics, savoury autolytic notes and piercing green apple acidity balanced with that sweet lick of honey. Fresh, clean and driving.
