Cavalleri NV Brut - Blanc de Blancs Sparkling (Franciacorta)

Price $15

Here’s a value in sparkling wine that boasts distinctive aromas, mainly scrambled eggs and toast. Chalk and mineral-water flavors and a long, dusty-textured finish back them up. It’s smooth and supple, yet also fresh. — J.C. (12/31/2001)

Cavalleri NV Satèn - Blanc de Blancs Sparkling (Franciacorta)

Price $18

Seems to be showing its age already—the aromas are of Emmenthal rinds and old moss. Toasty and vanilla-oaky, it’s full and creamy in the mouth, with some subtle hints of plum. Finishes short. — W.E. (12/31/2001)

Cavalleri 1995 Collezione - Blanc de Blancs Sparkling (Franciacorta)

Price $22

This sparkler got a major split decision from our panelists who either found it full and rich, loving it for its buttery, smoky, dense qualities, or disliked it for being heavy and simple because of its weighty, buttery, overly toasty personality. Either way, it’s full-bodied and finishes dry and tart (or maybe bitter), with good length. — J.C. (12/31/2001)
