La Farra NV Brut Glera (Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore)
- $16
This easy-going Prosecco Superiore Brut open with a fresh bouquet of dried white flower, citrus and crushed mineral. The wine's dry, tonic mouthfeel is backed by the softness of its creamy perlage.

Manuel Olivier NV Brut Sparkling (Crémant de Bourgogne)
- $17
Fragrant and crisp, this is a lively blend in which the Aligoté gives a great cut of acidity. The wine does have some weight as well, rounded at the end over the bright aftertaste.

Sommariva NV Brut Glera (Conegliano Valdobbiadene Prosecco Superiore)
- $15
This is a Brut Prosecco Superiore but it shows slightly more softness and sweetness than you normally get with this driest expression of the Italian sparkling wine. Peach blossom and almond skin characterize the bouquet.
