88 points Wine Spectator: "[$38 list] Succulent yet crisp, with aromas of lemon sorbet and luscious flavors of peach, vanilla and cinnamon. Drink now. (12/15/11)"

Wine Enthusiast: "[$38 list] This is a pleasantly sweet bubbly. There’s a honeyed, sugary edge to the citrus, tropical fruit, spice, vanilla and toast flavors, and the bubbles are smooth and fine. The majority grape is Flora, a cross between Sémillon and Gewürztraminer. Alcohol 13.0%. (Dec 2011)"

Producer notes: "Schramsberg Crémant Demi-sec is a delicate, off-dry sparkling wine: an American original. Crémant is French for "creamy" and traditionally refers to a wine with light effervescence. It has approximately half the pressure of our other sparkling wines and presents a creamier texture with more exotic flavors. Delicious tropical aromas of ripe mango and pineapple are followed by developed characters of warm banana bread and baked citrus. On the palate, flavors of sweet peach and juicy orange are rounded by roasted hazelnut. This sparkling wine is particularly viscous and coating upon entry, with a quenching finish."
