I don't deserve to be married working late on Valentine's Day and opening a $12 bottle of bubbly, but the bubbly was good enough to win back her love.Returning to familiar territory with the Codorniu Clasico Brut (NV), I was impressed once again by this cheap Cava - pale gold with a decent mousse and attractive notes of toasty bread, white flowers, pears, and earthy tropical fruit - a prelude to its crisp, creamy mouthfeel, and smokey-apple flavours. Yes, you can have "champagne-like" flavour every day - bravo!

Fun series Joe! We're always looking for quaffable everyday wines at our house, most don't make the blog though...glad the wife forgave you for working late!
ReplyDeleteHi Megan - thanks, I'm having fun with these wines. As you know, I haven't been forgiven - I just "owe her"...that's worse than not being forgiven...
