Name: Dibon Cava
Variety: Xarello, Macabeo, Parellada
Region: Catalonia
Country: Spain
Price: $9.95
Shop/wine critic/winery review: Made from 45% Macabeo, 25% Xarel-lo, 30% Parellada, the nose offers regal yeast and richness, while the palate has complexity to prop up apple, citrus and grapefruit flavors. Solid from front to back, with health and freshness. Cava, Catalan sparkling wine, is made mostly in the regions of Penedes, and the capital of cava is Sant Sadurni d´Anoia. Dibon is located in Vilafranca del Penedes, aproximately 20 Km from Sant Sadurni. The Dibon vineyard is in the process of becoming fully organic. It consists of 75 hectares of trellised vines 1000 feet above the Mediterranean Sea.
My review: This wine was a sweeter white wine which had a citrus smell on the nose. When i tasted it, I got floral hints with the possible inclusion of other fruits such as apple. I did not have this wine with any food.
