- Name: Dibon Cava Brut Reserve
- Variety: Macabeo, Xarel-lo, Parellada
- Region: Penedes
- Country: Spain
- Year: No Vintage
- Price: $9.95
- Shop Review: Xarel-lo, Parellada, and Macabeo. 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.
- My Review: The nose gave off a tart smell and light apples. This was a fizzy wine so when it was poured it immediately bubbled right up. On the tongue it tingled as it bubbled and it offered a strong bite as well. The aftertaste had a hint of strawberry and floral and ended off the taste with a mildly bitter flavor. It was an alright wine but personally the ending of bitter was offputting.
- No food
This is my first ever blog and will be a documented history of my wine experiences over the course of my last semester here at Virginia Tech. It is required for my Geography of Wine course with John Boyer but I plan to use it for my own personal enjoyment beyond the lifespan of this course as well.
