Maria Rigol Ordi Cava “Mil-Leni” Reserva Brut Nature 2017 – Country: Italy – Capacity: 0.75 Maria Rigol Ordi Maria Rigol Ordi specializes in producing excellent organic Cava sparkling wines. All super-dry bubbles, with very low dosages, when not at all (as in this case) and respectful of tradition. Cava “Mil-Lenni” Reserva Brut Nature, comes from processing the classic triad of grapes typical of the region, Xarel-lo, Macabeo and Parellada, to which a small percentage of Chardonnay is added. The special feature of this classic method is that during maturation the bottles are not corked with the classic crown cork but with cork. This limited contact between wine and wood, prolonged for more than two years (although often up to 36 months), gives the wine greater complexity and a unique pleasantness. Pale yellow with greenish hues, the nose reveals an elegant and fine bouquet, with distinct hints of Golden apple and peach. Then citrus, lime zest, and the typical recall to baked goods, such as cookie, and butter. In the mouth it is fresh, with creamy, fine bubbles. Good acidity and dry finish. Modernity and elegance for a pleasantly gastronomic bubbly. Excellent with raw fish and shellfish, on the table it has enough stuff to hold its own with flavorful white meat dishes as well.
