Name: NV Segura Viudas Brut Reserva
Vineyard: Segura Viudas
Origin: Penedès region of Spain
Varietal: Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel-lo
Pairs with... cream-based soups... or anything
My thoughts: Thrown a little by the brut-ness of the Brut. Used to a my cavas being a little more suave.
What a real critic say: "Owned by the Cava house Friexenet, Segura Viudas regularly hits the tops of our charts for Cava. The Brut Reserva is the best Cava we tasted last year, regardless of price, a graceful, complex bubbly with dry apple flavors wrapped in smoke, spice and minerals."
Approx cost: $8.99
Where to buy: Wine.com, ShoppersWines.com
