90 Wine Enthusiast A sparkling wine that impressively delivers over its price point with aromas of apple blossom and celery salt, followed by flavors of crisp apple through a moderate f finish.

90 View from the Cellar The new arrival of Cava “1+1=3” non-vintage Brut is composed from a cépages of forty percent Xarel-lo, thirty percent each of Parellada and Macabeo. The vines are farmed organically and, most importantly, the grapes are hand-harvested. The wine is from the base year of 2022 and was disgorged in January of 2025; it was finished with a dosage was 8.5 grams. The wine’s bouquet is bright and complex, offering up notes of lemon, breadfruit, a touch of menthol, lemongrass and a lovely base of chalky, salty soil tones. On the palate the wine is crisp, full-bodied, focused and complex, with a good core of fruit, fine mineral undertow, frothy mousse and lovely balance on the long and vibrant finish. This is very, very good entry level Cava! 2025-2045.

89 OwenBargreen.com NV ‘1+1=3’ Cava- Made from old vine Macabeo, Xarel-lo and parellada, this offers good tension with a smooth mousse. Juicy melon and citrus fruits combine with salty undercurrents on the palate. This is really good for the price. Drink 2024-2030
