Bohigas (Spain) Cava Brut Reserva

90 Points - Robert Parker Wine Advocate
91 John Gilman - View from the Cellar
89 Points - James Suckling

This is serious fizz!

50% Xarel·lo - 30% Macabeo - 20% Parellada
Bohigas Reserva cavas are aged in the cellar for at least 15 months, most more. The bottles are then clarified and disgorged. 

Winemakers note
"Pale yellow colour. Constant and small bubble. Foam of great persistence. Very fruity aromas of white fruit (acid apple and pear) on shades of peel of citrics and white flowers. In the background, some spicy notes owed to ageing (cinnamon) and cookies. It is a well-structured "cava" in the mouth. Well picked up over its acidity that tenses it overall from beginning to end. The bubble lends a creamy feeling, and it gives volume and softness to the structure that returns acidity and widens the aromas of white fruits and spices that are repeated in the mouth. Its balanced end harmonizes its acidity, and leaves a memory of freshness and volume owing to its light sugar content."

Bohigas (Spain) Cava Brut Rosé

88 Points - Wine Enthusiast

Pale pink with red and mauve highlights. The fruity aromas combine with each other and lose themselves among the floral nuances. A subtle mixture of strawberry jam and garden roses, combined with creamy notes from the fine lees. Full, fruity and powerful on the palate, with a good acid base that provides freshness to the pleasant notes of confectionery and lengthens the perception. Finish where red berries and spicy notes (sandalwood) offer a clean, gourmand touch.

Bohigas (Spain) Cava Extra Brut Gran Reserva

91 Points - James Suckling
"There’s a yeasty tang to the sliced apples and lemon zest. This shows good intensity on the palate, with creamy bubbles extending to a crisp, lengthy finish. Sourdough
and stone fruit at the end" James Suckling

This is serious fizz!

Yellow with golden highlights due to its ageing. Very fine bubbles with a slow, regular detachment. Maximum persistence of the crown due to long contact with fermentation yeasts.
Highly complex aromas, combining fresh fruit with jam and syrup. On the whole offering long development, always with freshness as the focus of perception and advancing to fine notes of toast, dried fruit and nuts, spices (anis) and a touch of minerals (graphite).
On the palate we note its powerful character softened by a subtle sweetness which, together with a good structure and fine bubble, forms an indestructible whole to accompany the aromas of ripe fruit with long persistence. Evolution with notes of pastry, spices and toast to produce a product with great power and projection in the glass.

91 Points - James Suckling

In this deep garnet red wine, reflections of purple dance. A bouquet of cherries, blueberries, sweet spices, vanilla, and chocolate fills the glass. The palate begins with a fresh start, followed by impressions of cocoa powder, herbs, and sweet mocha. Its silky tannins contribute to an elegant and straightforward experience, while a lingering finish carries hints of herbs. A true testament to the Garnacha grape, this wine serves as a tribute to Raíces Ibéricas.

Excellent wine to serve with lamb, duck breast with cherry sauce, ossobuco, grilled white meat or hard cheeses.

AMAZING VALUE 100% Organic wine from our friends at Sierra Norte 

Once the grapes have arrive at the cellars, they are cooled to delay the fermentation, while frequent pump-overs are carried out to achieve a better extraction of colour, aroma precursors and only the soft tannins. The alcoholic fermentation is then done at a controlled temperature of 22-24°C with gentle pumping over. The marc is pressed in a pneumatic press, and then the malolactic fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks.

A dark, cherry-red colour with purple glints. Intense and lingering fruit character showing strawberries and redcurrants. Fresh on the palate with lively tannins and a lingering sensation of spice.
