    Raventos i Blanc Conca del Riu Anoia de Nit (Sparkling rosé) 2020 - OutstandingTasted by Elizabeth Gabay MW & Ben Bernheim

    Very pale cream pink. Slightly beeswax, sweet herbal tobacco and pot pourri aromas developing into notes of white waxy flowers, Jasmine, mahonia, exotic flowers, apples and pears then emerge. On the palate the fruit is creamy with rich biscuit leesy character with sweet-perfumed oranges, followed by ripe white fruit and juicy red berries balanced by long clean mineral structure, delicate stony citrus freshness and long, sour cooking apple, citrus and hedgerow berry acidity, and a hint of pithy apple tannins. A serious wine, linear, crisp and elegant which feels like Champagne in its acidity, power and elegance.
