86/100 with the following review:
Fruity nose ranging from apple and pear through peach and lemon with some tropical inklings. Quite sweet, possessing 30 grams of residual sugar per litre, with acid a touch on the low side. Apple, peach, and pear through the palate. At 9% ABV, this bubbly is light and refreshing. Pair with spicy cuisine or pork chops with applesauce.

This wine is surprising but too little is offered for the $. A touch sweet, with lemon-lime soda and white peach. 88 Points.
Monique Sosa reviewed this wine as follows:
Floral, fruity and fun! Stone fruit and honey are most prominent. This bubbly is made using the “tank methon” (aka Charmant method/Prosecco style with secondary fermentation completed in a pressurized tank). What gives it away is the shape of the bottle. Overall, it’s a good wine worth trying, especially if you prefer lower alcohol off dry style. Also, a great option for pairing brunch favourites like chicken and waffles, frittatas, or french toast.

Interesting and different. Sparkling Riesling from Reif Estate. Traditional Riesling notes of lemon, lime, grass and very faint kerosene in the distance. Flavours are tart and lemony with crisp sweet pink grapefruit notes at the end. Overall this is quite well balanced, zingy acidity with lingering peachy sweetness. (30g/L) Suitable to pair with local Ontario cheeses, and fish tacos. 86 points - tasted March 11th 2018

Reof, the iconic Niagata on the Lake producer, brings us a sparkling Riesling made in the charmat method (like Prosecco).
Bright lemon, extremely persistent bubbles.
Somewhat mineral aromas. Quince, ginger, and assorted citrus.
Flavours of lemon, lime, quince, citrus rind, and vanilla.
Pair with some shrimp cocktails and maybe some collard greens.

An easy sparkling.…
Presentation: A theatrical, fairy-tale label reminiscent of a children’s book, with a very distinctive bottle shape
Appearance: Pale lemon
Nose: Light nose with notes of smelly cheese
Taste: Dry, light body, medium acidity, low tannins, and bubbles reminiscent of a soda, with notes of white peach, apricot, and sweet lemon
Finish: long sweet lemon finish
Overall impression: An easy sparkling to drink on its own or paired with chips or fries (anything salty and savoury).
Value: 3.5/5
