The 2018 Naveran Brut Vintage is a top-notch Cava. This wine is active and bright with its aromas and flavors of subtle fruit and dried earth. Enjoy it with a tray of raw oysters.
Naveran Brut Cava 2018,
750ml, $16.99
From vines planted on clay and limestone around the village of Sant Sadurni d’Anoia, this is a classic blend of 50 percent xarel-lo, 40 percent macabeo, with parellada making up the rest. It aged for 18 months on its lees and developed slight hints of flor, as if it were a bubbly interpretation of a Fino. It moves through the mouth in cool waves of flavor, the texture firm yet creamy. It’s a rich, layered sparkler to serve with suquet de peix, a classic Catalàn fish soup with clams.
