Freixenet Cordon Negro Gran Selección Cava Brut NV
Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainThis ubiquitous Cava is consistent as ever, with red apple, rubber cement, candied lemon, candy necklace, toast ruling a shorter palate. The finish is somewhat bitter with wilted florals and acerbic citrus. Definitely welcomes a chill, and pairing with cocktails or punch.Tasted: 29 October 2020Tasted by: Prices:
Freixenet Cordon Negro Gran Selección Cava Brut NV
Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainFreixenet's Cordon Negro is a classic for a reason. It's a fairly priced traditional method sparkling wine that captures the essence of Cava. There’s subtle toasty autolytic character from a short time on lees and a savouriness that I generally associate with Penedès' indigenous varieties. Underneath is green apple and lemon, but it's safe to say this is not an overly fruity wine. Medium-bodied, there’s surprising precision to the palate with a fine mousse leading to a dryish finish at 10 g/L residual sugar. Yes, Cava can reach much greater highs, but this is a solid everyday bubble.Tasted: 28 October 2020Tasted by: Prices:
