Adventures in Spanish Wine
Cava
Segura Viudas Brut Vintage 2002
Spring is here in Melbourne and its time for Cava. I've got a few new vintages coming in this week, but I grabbed a couple of bottles of this on the weekend to get calibrated. The rising Aussie dollar seems to have helped out here as well, the price has dropped 2 bucks from the 2001.
A classic nose of toasty bead and nuts with a touch of apple. Loads of fizz in the glass, not over the top though. Quite creamy, but with good acid and a minerally, medium length finish. The trademark tangy green apples with some almonds. Very cooling and refreshing all round. 88 Pts.

Gday Dave,
Thanks for the note, I’m going to make a real effort to swig more cava this summer. It’s just a matter of finding it that’s a bit tricky!
Keep up the excellent work with your blog sir. I’m by no means any sort of expert on Spanish wine, so good thing there are passionate drinkers like you on the case!
cheers
Max
Thanks Max, Feed back like that is always welcome.
If you need a hand finding stuff, give me a yell. Always happy to help. Just drinking the Raventos i Blanc Brut 2005 now actually, very good stuff.
