La Dilettante has become one of my favorite sparklers of the season for casual enjoyment. It strikes a perfect balance between sophistication and approachability. The wine is nuanced and mineral-driven, yet remains delightfully easy-going. The nose is beautiful, with aromas of creamy mushroom soup, baked apples touched with honey, and a hint of sea notes. On the palate, it is deliciously fresh and even racy, with a long aftertaste and intense flavors. The finish is slightly creamy, making it a truly enjoyable experience.

This wine is a delightful gem, subtly expressive yet possessing a strong character. It presents captivating aromas of creamy mushroom soup, bruised apples, a hint of honey, and a whisper of Jerez. Although not overly complex, it offers intricate and nuanced details with undeniable charm—a wine that tells its own story. On the palate, it is round and salty, with a persistent finish that gently fades, leaving a lingering memory of the sea.

It's not that I'm bored of sparkling wines; it's just particularly delightful to encounter something new and memorable. This wine, with its pronounced notes of mushroom cream soup, bruised apples, and honey, evokes the feeling that autumn is just around the corner. A slight bitterness and overall saltiness add to the deliciously pleasant experience. The mousse is gentle and pleasingly playful yet not intense. Overall, it's a nice experience.
