Dibon Cava- Xarel-lo, Macabeo, Parellada

Name: Dibon Cava
VarietyXarel-lo, Macabeo, Parellada
Region:Catalonia
Country: Spain
Year:-
Price: 9.95

Winery review:  88 points – Wine Enthusiast 
Made from 45% Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada, 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. Cava, Catalan sparkling wine, is made mostly in the regions of Penedes, and the capital of cava is Sant Sadurni d´Anoia. Dibon is located in Vilafranca del Penedes, aproximately 20 Km from Sant Sadurni. The Dibon vineyard is in the process of becoming fully organic. It consists of 75 hectares of trellised vines 1000 feet above the Mediterranean Sea.

My review: I thought this wine was pretty good. It had nice apple and pear aromas to it. It was also not too sweet and had a nice acidity to it. Overall pretty good.
