WTN: Freixenet Brut Cava 2004

Dark yellow in the glass.

Nutty on the nose.

Lots of fine bubbles.

Good acidity, clean, nutty, light lemon, bitter grapefruit rind, green apples, soft in the mouth but with a cutting acidic edge.

Citrus rind bitterness on the finish.

An okay, everyday sparkling wine.

Purchased at $15.95 (Canadian).

Sounds a little pricy for 'okay', given what is coming out of the Loire these days.

But, this is widely available I know.
