Tasting-Dibon Cava


Name: Dibon Cava
Variety: 45% Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada
Region: Penedes
Country: Spain
Year: No Vintage
Price: $9.95
Shop 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.” (Vintage Cellar, Blacksburg, VA)

My review: It had a pungent smell with strong sour citrus aromas.  It was slightly effervescent, and light to the taste. I could taste the yeast mentioned in the review, and overall thought the wine was lovely.  I actually bought a bottle for myself.  I suggest to someone who is still new to wine but wants to branch out.

I drank this without food.
