Tapas and Cava

Last night we went to Toro in the South End for delicious food, sangria, and an impressive Spanish wine list. My favorite way to end the meal at a tapas restaurant is with a glass of cava, and I tried the Casteller rose cava last night for the first time. Lovely glass of wine--beautiful deep pink color, lush berry flavors, and a nice clean finish. Laurel and Kerry agreed--definitely worth buying retail. Best part is the price point--about ten dollars most places. GREAT value!

Here's the review from Port Wine and Spirits:

N/V Casteller Rose Cava: From Pendes, Spain. 88 Points-The Wine Advocate. "This non-vintage Rose Cava is made from 70% Trepat and 30% Garnacha. Dark pink in color, it offers strawberry and floral aromas, ripe flavors, and excellent length. If there is any better value in Rose bubbly, I'd like to know about it."
