Llopart 2003 Rosé Brut Reserva Sparkling (Cava)
- Online Exclusive
- $18
Heat from the 2003 vintage aside, this is one sweet, forward, dark-colored Cava. The nose is all about cheeky, sweet fruit, while the palate offers more berry sweetness along with vanilla. Normally this bottling is more restrained and striated, but 2003 was a warm year. May be better with desserts than appetizers, given the ripeness.

Llopart 2007 Reserva Brut Rosé Sparkling (Cava)
- $22
This vintage rosado is as good as always, but a bit lower on the quality ladder than previous years. The color is light pink and soft on the eye, while the nose suggests brick dust and orange peel. Smooth and easygoing, with sweet, generic flavors of orange and berry.

Llopart 1994 Brut Leopardi Sparkling (Cava)
- $26
Light aromas of lemon, cotton and chalk preface similar flavors, backed by pear notes, on the palate. In the mouth, it’s clean, even and soft, with a little bead. Finishes with more clean lemon-mineral flavors.

Llopart 2009 Rosé Brut Reserva Sparkling (Cava)
- $23
Light pink in color, this has chewing gum, watermelon and dust aromas. It is underwhelming on the palate, with a simple mouthfeel and flavors of cotton candy and cherry.
