Cava Brut Nature

Maria Rigol Ordi · Gran Pénèdés, Spain

Aromas of pear, nectarine, peach, and subtle white flowers. With oxygenation, tropical hints of green pineapple and mango emerge, along with herbaceous aniseed and vine leaf shoots. A touch of spice and a hint of yeast at the back of the palate. Fresh and subtle on the attack, with finebubbles, a medium body, and a silky texture.
