2009 Laurent Kraft Vouvray

We had this Vouvray with cheese and crackers. It went well with the herb coated goat cheese, but not too well with the hard aged goat cheese.
The alcohol content is 12% and the bottle is labeled a "Sec". The color was a pale yellow. The nose was lush with pears and apricots and the flavor was fruity but with a touch of citrus--lemons. Overall, the wine was well balanced.
One thing that we noticed upon opening the bottle and pouring was the evolution of very tiny bubbles. Is this the case with Vouvrays?
