Tasting Note:  NV Darona Pére & Fils Saint-Péray Brut

Marsanne and roussanne blend

Straw yellow color with gold flecks.  Blossoms, musk, and baking aromas such as brioche, buttered biscuits, and sourdough with citrus undertones on the nose.  Bubbles disappeared quickly upon pouring.  Golden raisons and clove spice on palate.  Some density to the mid-palate, citrusy acidity though not super crisp, and fat on the finish.
