Cava Kripta Franc Reserva Brut 2019
Availability: In stock
The well-known Cava Kripta Franc Reserva Brut is a classic, nicely crafted Spanish sparkling wine produced by the Agustí Torelló Mata winery.
Moderately dry, this Cava is made from a blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada coming from old vineyards located in Penedès.
The wine was traditionally vinified, with secondary fermentation taking place in the bottle. After that, it was aged for a minimum of 36 months.
As with all of Agustí Torelló Mata's sparkling wines, the disgorging date of the Cava Kripta Franc Reserva Brut 2019 is printed on the back label.
This is a nicely priced, delicious organic Cava from Penedès.
Appearance | The Cava Kripta Franc Mata Reserva Brut is medium straw with some golden tinges. |
---|---|
Nose | Clean notes of white fruit, aromatic herbs, balsam and menthol. Aromatic and inviting, this blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada also suggests remembrances of honey and pastry. |
Palate | This Cava Brut Reserva from Agustí Torelló Mata is fresh and wonderfully drinkable, with some tiny bubbles and notes of ripe white fruit, baked apples, citrus and herbs. Dim mineral undertones, very good acidity and a long, toasted finish. |
Our personal opinion | A not-so-dry, gentle Cava, Kripta Franc Reserva Brut 2019 is great with appetizers and as an afterwork drink. |
