Tasting - Dibon Cava Brut Reserva

Name:  Dibon Cava Brut Reserva
Variety:  45% Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada
Region:  Penedes
Country:  Spain
Price:  $9.95

Winery Review:  Light apple aromas are elegant and not over the top, while the tangerine and orange flavors are lean and focused.  This is a light-framed Cava with a clean, fast, tasty profile and finish.  Not yeasty or heavy at all.

My Review:  This wine was almost clear in color.  The aroma smelled of crisp apples with a floral bouquet.  On the palate this was a light, sweet wine with carbonation.  It had very zesty orange flavors.  This Cava was very simplistic and was reminiscent of Champagne.

I did not drink this wine with food.
