Perfectly approachable and wholesome. Aromas of bread dough, pear and lemon-lime are alert and attractive. The palate provides a lush bowl of kiwi, apple and pear, while some citrus coats the finish. Imported by European Cellars.

Cherry and dusty cinnamon aromas blend with a touch of cough drop on the nose, while the full-bodied palate pits spicy berry and plum against rather soft acidity. Finishes sweet for a burst, then dry and peppery. Alluring rosado. Imported by European Cellars.

Loud and basic, with ripe fruit aromas and flavors but also a detectable heaviness. The palate pushes ripe apple and pear, while the finish is big but quiet. Deep and dense but dull along the edges.

A lovely wine that brightens the luster of this top Cava maker. Leesy aromas of vanilla, pastry and bread are balanced in equal parts by floral notes, and in the mouth there’s papaya, apricot, peach and toasted bread. Long on the finish. Classy Cava.

Quite rich and yeasty, with bold aromatics of baked bread and toasted corn. That rich, individual style carries onto the palate, which is sort of chunky and soft, with cidery flavors that finish thick and a touch sweet. A much heavier style of Cava made for near-term drinking.

Neutral on the nose, with a rough bubble bead. Tastes candied and strange, with cough-drop flavors. Seems fresh, but finishes coarse.

Here’s a serious Cava with Champagne qualities. The nose is nutty and rich, with hints of vanilla and popcorn that aren’t overdone. The palate is toasty but also candied, with citrus blending perfectly with butterscotch. Plump and ripe through the finish, this is high-end and stylish, as Spanish bubbly goes. Drink now or hold in a good cellar for a few more years.

It is said that at five years a good cava starts to change for the better, and this seems to be an example of that. Classic aromas of petrol, baked apple and spiced ham precede a sly palate that’s both soft and deep. Mild citrus flavors are topped by vanilla and white pepper. Mature.

Light pale lemon green with a consistant fine bead of bubbles. Aromas of dried fruits, almonds and light toasty notes. Excellent balance between the acidity and sweetness with a smooth, sweet finish. Flavours of sultanas, sweet pineapple and felt as though you were walking through a patisserie with sweet, candied notes. Pair with a nice Manchego on fresh crostini.
