Wine Tasting: Dibon Cava

Name: Dibon Cava
Variety:  Xarel-lo, Parellada, and Macabeo
Region: 
Penedes
 Country: Spain
Year: 
NV
Price:
 $9.95


Winery Review:  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. - Vintage Wine Cellar 02/14/2013

My Review: Extremely bubbly and dry, almost eye-watering.  Dibon Cava had a nice light golden color with a layer of bubbles the quickly popped after being poured.  Hints of citrus  and apple were detectable in the aroma.  This wine was too dry and carbonated for my liking, I wasn't a big fan but do believe it had a lot to it.  

Food: I did not try this wine with food.
