Flat Rock Riddled Sparkling 2009, Niagara Peninsula, Ontario V.Q.A., Canada: Clean, crisp Ontario sparkling wine with a refreshing finish. Notes of green apple and stone fruit. The beer-bottle crown cap allows the bubbly to continue to develop flavours and bubbles (just as they do in Champagne before finally sealing it with the mushroom-shaped large cork). Pair with fried chicken. Drink: 2013-2017. 383315 12.50% D 750 mL $29.95 Score: 90/100. November 26, 2016 Top Rated Sparkling Wine. Terrific Turkey Wine Full Review
