Segura Viudas NV Reserva Heredad Sparkling (Cava)

The king of the Segura Viudas line comes out of the gate a bit heavy, with mineral, slate and iodine aromas along with citrus rind and yeast. But it gets better with air, as bready, richer characteristics appear. Only modestly tangy on the finish, with far more complexity than the average cava delivers.

Very solid and sturdy, with aromas of apple, lemon-lime, soda cracker and mineral. The palate is fuller and more flavorful than your average cava, with candied apple, papaya, lime and lemon flavors. Dry, pithy and hinting at complexity on the finish.
