Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainI first encountered this wine about 20 years ago and wondered why it wasn't sold in Canada. Eventually, it did make its way here, but it never got a fair shake in B.C. In fact, this is very good Cava made mostly from chardonnay with a splash of xarel-lo. The tight green apple fruit, streaked with notes of white fruits, citrus pith, and peel, is a delicious late afternoon aperitif or a wine you can serve with any number of sushi rolls or Spanish-style tapas—high quality at a reasonable price. Your guests will enjoy the stylish white wrap packaging as well.Tasted: 12 April 2025Tasted by: Prices:
