Tasting: Dibon Cava Brut Reserve

Name: Dibon Cava Brut Reserve
Variety: 45& Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada
Region: Penedes
Country: Spain
Year: None listed

Winery review: Light gold with plenty of bubbles, this wine has aromas of apples and pears with pleasant floral notes. Crisp and light-bodied on the palate, stone fruit flavors are accompanied by a mild minerality and balanced acidity. A delicious sparkler for a great price!

My review: I detected little to no smell when I sniffed this wine. Tasting it, I found it to be very tangy/tart and fizzy with a buttery, nutty finish. The wine was refreshing but no distinct flavors jumped out at me.

Food: None
