    Dark ruby coral pink. Sweet, scented aromas, dried hay, pot pourri and soft slightly bruised ripe fruit aromas. On the palate the ripeness continues with honeyed mellow fruit, bruised apples, apple pips, peach kernal, and abundant rich, ripe strawberry and raspberry fruit with characteristic herbal finish. Edgy fresh crisp crunchy acidity, red currant fruit, sour hedgerow berries although struggling a little to balance the full-bodied fruit at first. Very distinctly cava and soft ripeness with a firm inner core. Stop looking for Champagne and appreciate what a wonderfully drinkable wine this is - so much fruit, so much strawberry, it's a real joy, while maintaining serious composure and a velvet, fresh and well-balanced structure. For €11 retail, it's a bargain.
