Cava mestres brut 1312

Cava Mestres brut 1312

I have enjoyed this cava, which is not usual. It is much better than the previous one. In addition, I have also enjoyed the label. It's plenty of information :-) (a main problem of most cavas is that you never know if it is new or too much old for consumption)

Mastinell Brut Real

Heretat Mastinell Brut Real

This is a good example of a typical cava that I have not enjoyed. Nevertheless it is quite famous due to the wedding of a King's daughter...

Barciño cava

Barciño Cava

This is just marketing. While it is true that the roman name of Barcelona is Barcino, we never used in Catalan the awful "ñ" letter, which does not exist in latin language.
I guess that they try to use this letter in order to sound more "spanish". It's a shame.

Cava rosat Artium semi-sec

Cava rosat Artium semi-sec

Same label that rosat Artium brut. The difference can be seen in the rear label and in the neck. Obiously the taste is also different. This one is sweet. To be sincere, I prefer this sweet cava than the brut one. Outstanding product for 4,9 eur per bottle.

Cava rosat Artium Brut

Cava Rosat Artium Brut

This is a very nice cava. Although I do not like cava, I always made an exception with rosé one, and this one offers a very good quality/price ratio. It has some texture and density. Higher than "normal" cava. Very nice color, and very friendly people at the "cooperativa d'Artes". You will pay 4,9 EUR per bottle at their cellar, and even more, you will enjoy the visit, if you have chance to go there. Worth to visit it at taste for free all their products!

Raventós i Blanc de nit 2007

Raventós i blanc de nit 2007

This is a rosé cava that tastes quite similar to "normal" cava. Anyway it has a subtile difference, probably due to the monastrell grape, which is not usual in cava.
I must say again that I do not like cava too much...

Carnival cava

Carnival Cava

this is a special cava made for carnival with a very nice turqoise colour. Unfortunately there is no label so I cannot provide any reference. The taste is the same than a classical one.

Freixenet Elyssia Brut

I have been really surprised by this cava. Worth to taste it! specially if you do not have too much expectations when tasting a cava.

Anna de Codorniu brut Rosé

Anna de Codorniu Brut Rosé

Although I do not like cava I must say that, in my opinion, the rosé one is much better. Probably because it does not remind too much the cava taste...
