A cava of golden vines as the name suggests, that must be good. Made with the well-known blend of Xa-rello, Macabeo and Parellada but clearly dominated by the first mentioned. Green shiny colour. Apple fresh with fresh Granny Smiths and citronella as dominant factor in the aroma. A spicy but fine mousse in the introduction. Then very pleasant and accessible in terms of taste, with green apple and pear against again a zesty, sparkling citrus background and a solid serious aftertaste. This is a cava that you uncork for its freshness and its direct no-nonsense character. One that immediately makes life a party.
