89	View from the Cellar	The Biutiful Cava Brut is crafted from a blend of fifty percent Macabeu, thirty-five percent Parellada and fifty percent Xarel-lo. The grapes are harvested at night to preserve acidity and the wine is aged for twelve months on its fine lees prior to disgorgement and a finishing dosage of eight grams per liter. It offers up a lovely nose of lime, sea salts, stony minerality, menthol, wild fennel and a topnote of dried flowers. On the palate the wine is crisp, full-bodied, focused and complex, with pinpoint bubbles, bright acids and lovely focus and mineral drive on the long and complex finish. This is very good Cava and an excellent value! 2023-2033. Issue #103 - January/February 2023.
89	OwenBargreen.com	NV Biutiful ‘Brut’ Cava- Mostly Macabeo (50%) with smaller parts Parellada and Xarel-lo, this offers brioche and white grapefruit zest alongside suggestions of apricot and salted almond on the palate. This offers some serious value. Enjoy now. Drink 2022-2026. Owen Bargreen - July 20, 2022
89	View from the Cellar	The Biutiful Cava Brut is composed from a cépages of fifty percent Macabeu, thirty-five percent Parellada and fifty percent Xarel-lo. As I mentioned last year, the grapes are harvested at night to preserve acidity and the wine is aged for twelve months on its fine lees prior to disgorgement and a finishing dosage of eight grams per liter. The new release offers up a refined nose of lemon, white peach, salty soil tones, dried flowers and a touch of wild fennel in the upper register. On the palate the wine is bright, focused and full-bodied, with pinpoint bubbles, good soil signature, bouncy acids and fine balance on the long and complex finish. Good juice. 2024-2034. John Gilman; Issue 109, January – February 2024
