Tasting Freixnei Sparkling Cordon Negro Brut



• Name: Freixnei Sparkling Cordon Negro Brut
• Variety: 25% Xarel·lo, 40% Parellada, 35% Macabeo
• Region: Cava
• Country: Spain
• Year: 2012
• Price: $9.99
• Shop/wine critic/winery review: ""Finely meshed, with a lightly spiced finish. This shows more finesse than many of its peers, displaying a subtle juiciness, joined by aromatic apricot, quince, mandarin orange and almond notes."."
• My review: This sparkling wine from Spain smells very nice, it does not give out any significant smells, but it did smell a little fruity. I enjoyed the carbonation in this sparkling wine, it does not have a full body, it is rather short. The finish is pretty soft, there is a bitterness at the end but it did not last long. 

• I had this sparkling wine at a birthday party.
