NOTES FROM VINOVOSS SOMMELIER
Julia & Navines Cava Brut is a delightful sparkling wine from the Cava region of Spain.It is made using the traditional method, similar to Champagne, which involves a secondary fermentation in the bottle. This process gives the wine its characteristic effervescence and complex flavors.
On the nose, it offers a bouquet of fresh citrus fruits, such as lemon and grapefruit, along with floral notes of white flowers and hints of brioche.
On the palate, this Cava Brut showcases a crisp and refreshing acidity, balanced by a creamy texture. The citrus flavors continue to shine, accompanied by subtle notes of green apple and a touch of minerality. The finish is long and elegant, leaving a lingering impression of zesty fruit and a subtle yeasty character.
