Big Worster Ball

Speaking of hoarding, I've had this since 2014. Sweet, strong and boozy, but still smooth. There's a sort of apple brandy thing going on here that I really like.

Nelson Sauvin Brut 2020 Ball

I've got a habit of hoarding bottles that I'm trying to break, and this is the first one up! I think the age has really accentuated the oak in this. There's a mild Brett funk, offset with a little sweetness and some dry white grape notes.
