Flight 1 (5 notes)

White - Sparkling
N.V. Segura Viudas Cava Brut Spain, Cava
87 points
Pale yellow color. Aromas show lemon curd and apricot with baby’s breath, sea salt and chalk dust. Crisp and juicy on the palate with brisk acidity and a slight creaminess to the texture as well. Fresh, vibrant, with yellow apples and lemon curd. Notes of sea salt, cut flower stems and perfume add some complexity. Serious value here.
Rosé - Sparkling
N.V. Gratien & Meyer Crémant de Loire Brut Rosé France, Loire Valley, Crémant de Loire
87 points
Deep copper color. Smells of peaches, red apple peel, with chalk, sweet roses and some oregano and mint. Crisp yet juicy and punchy on the palate, with plenty of juicy raspberry, strawberry and red apple fruit. A light, brisk style with salty, floral and chalky notes. Vibrant, tasty, seafood-friendly stuff.
White - Sparkling
N.V. Mionetto Prosecco Italy, Veneto / Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Prosecco
86 points
Medium yellow color. Aromas of lemons, limes, crushed sweet tarts, nettle, and a nice mix of white and yellow flowers. Crisp and bright on the palate, not too sweet, quite balanced and crunchy. Green apples, limes and kiwi fuse with chalky, salty notes, and lots of honeysuckle, baby’s breath and floral perfume. A crisp, chalky finish. Good amount going on here in this value-driven Prosecco.
White - Sparkling
N.V. Freixenet Prosecco Extra Dry Italy, Veneto / Friuli-Venezia Giulia, Prosecco
85 points
Light lemon color. Nose shows green apples, lemons, faint white flowers. Crisp and light on the palate with plump texture and medium acidity. Lemons, apricots, tangy green apples, this is a light, crisp, straightforward Prosecco with foamy, spritzy, floral appeal. Lemons and apricots topped in white and yellow flowers. Simple but balanced well, and the drier take makes this a really seafood- and salad-friendly Prosecco.
White - Sparkling
N.V. Gloria Ferrer Brut Sonoma County USA, California, Sonoma County
88 points
Light gold color. Nose boast juicy peaches, apricot, lemon crème, with chalky, floral, honeyed notes. Crisp acidity and fine bubbles blend well with a round, creamy texture and flavors of sweet white peach, yellow apple and apricot. Notes of honey, chalk, floral perfume add complexity. A reliably solid California sparkling wine that is widely available and a real value.
