The Yorkshire lass enjoys fizz very much, as do I. It seems a perfect way to celebrate the coming of the weekend.
As the budget does not stretch to premium champagne, a Friday fallback is required.

It's pretty much demi, rather than the Brut it claims to be, and ain't that far from being an Asti. Don't take it wrong though, it makes it ideal breakfast / warm up wine, the bubbles are pleasingly persistent, and it's pretty compelling and drinkable. It's pretty childish, fun, tastes of zesty sweets, with a hit of apple acid balancing out the tutti frutti.
Given, it's not got style, class, elegance, but then it is around a fiver, for Friday fizz. A nice change to a steely cheap mouth stripping Cava, and more straightforward than a Cremant. A place for everything, and everything in its place.
