Country: Spain / Cordon Negro Brut
Variety: Sparkling Blend Catalonia
Winery: Freixenet / Cava
This is your quintessential simple quaff among brut cavas. It’s clean, lime-tinged and soda-like on the nose, with a correct, no-issues palate that pushes zesty apple along with sweet papaya, mango and banana flavors. It’s slightly sweet and tropical, but still it holds onto its crisp qualities and dryness. No complaints for the money.
