Freixenet, Ice Rosé, Cuvée Especial, Metodo Tradicional, Semi Seco, Cava, Spain, 12%. EAN: 8410036806521 Drink over ice and - if you want - with some fresh (red) fruit in it. TN 18-03-2020 (not over ice): Very well made. No faults. Good balance, however just a little bid too sweet for me. Nice but a too subtle red fruit taste. But overall (of course) very simple. The standard dry Freixenet is better. See: https://www.cellartracker.com/wine.asp?iWine=64036 Freixenet, Cordón Negro, Metodo Tradicional, Gran Selección, Brut, Cava, Catalonia, Spain, 11.5%. For me R=87 only for the mousse, no faults and being a real brut, but R=82 to 83 for the overall. TN 04-04-2020 (not over ice): Still 100% okay. No mousse, but still lightly pétillant. Maybe a bid richer, more body now, so better after 2 weeks stored at room temperature. TN 05-04-2020 (not over ice): The same. R=85 and QPR=8 if you like the semi dry sweetness, otherwise resp. 83 and 7. S=83 R=7.5(10) 05-04-20 M=2020-2023
