90+ View from the Cellar The Cava “1+1=3” Rosé “Seleccion” is crafted from a fifty-fifty blend of Garnacha and Pinot Noir. The wine was aged sur latte for fifteen months and finished with a dosage of 8.5 grams per liter. It is a lovely pale salmon color and offers up a pretty and refined bouquet tart strawberries, melon, a lovely base of minerality, lemongrass and a touch of lavender in the upper register. On the palate the wine is crisp, young and full-bodied, with an excellent core and mineral undertow, refined mousse and fine balance on the long, focused and complex finish. This is really good and quite dry for its dosage level, as the underlying minerality just eats up the perception of sweetness on the backend. First class Cava. 2023-2040.
Issue #103 - January/February 2023.
90+ View from the Cellar The Cava “1+1=3” Brut Rosé Selecció is crafted this year from a blend of eighty-five percent Garnaxta and fifteen percent Pinot Noir, with the vines farmed organically and twenty years of age. It is from the base year of 2021 and was disgorged in May of 2023 and finished with a dosage of 8.5 grams per liter. The wine is a lovely pale salmon in color and offers up a bouquet of strawberries, melon, white soil tones, lemongrass, just a whisper of brown spice tones and a topnote of dried rose petals. On the palate the wine is bright, focused and full-bodied, with good depth at the core, elegant mousse, lovely balance and a long, poised and complex finish. This is really good juice and a fine, fine value! 2024-2040.
