Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The sparkling wine Recaredo Finca Serral del Vell is deep straw with some steely and greenish tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Intensely balsamic, this blend of Macabeo and Xarel·lo suggests aromas of white fruit nuanced by hints of fennel, liquorice and aniseed, dim remembrances of lees and white flowers, and some mineral intimations. The nose of this Corpinnat sparkling wine shows real complexity and refinement. |
| Palate | Extremely fresh, with a delightful intrincacy and some potential for growth, this organic sparkling wine of the Recaredo winery nicely combines remembrances of white fruit, Mediterranean herbs, some buttery and creamy notes and a touch of dry fruit. Crisp and dry, extremely pure, the wine ends with an elegantly bitter note, Xarel·lo's trademark. |
| Our personal opinion | In one word: sensational. The sparkling wine Recaredo Serral del Vell 2018 follows the path of the world's great sparklers. |
