Tasting- Dibon Cava Brut Reserve

Name: Dibon Cava Brut Reserve
Variety: Xarelo-lo, Parellada, Macabeo
Region: Penedes
Country: Spain
Year: Non-Vintage
Price: $9.95

Winery Review: The nose offers regal yeast and richness, while the palate has complexity to prop up apple, citrus, and grapefruit flavors. Solid from front to back, with health and freshness.

My Review: This wine looks almost like sparking water it is so lightly colored and clear. I found the nose of this to have crisp green apple, peach, and a light citrus smell. The taste was kicked off with the zing of carbonation and sweetness followed by a smooth and powerful burst of flavor that lingers. This would be a good alternative to champagne if you wanted it.
