Brut Nature is the driest of all Cava classifications, as it receives no "dosage" (basically an addition of sugar syrup at the time of secondary fermentation, which leaves varying degrees of residual sweetness in the now-sparkling wine). So while this particular Bonaval Cava has essentially zero grams of residual sugar, the fact that it is produced from mostly Macabeo grapes with a small percentage of Parellada gives it a nice balance despite its dryness. Macabeo contributes freshness and fruit, and the Parellada adds acidity and delicate aromas.
The wine itself is pale yellow with a slight green-ish edge, showing delicate bubbles and with a nose of crisp apples. Lean and dry, yet tasty and with a definite elegant citrus flavor, the finish is dry, clean, and with firm acids that make it outstanding with sushi, creamy cheeses, and roasted almonds.
Weather/Vintage
Vintage:On rare occasions, a chosen vintage of a wine may sell out or be replaced by a new release after your order is placed. With bottles of wine listed under $15, we will not hold up an order and will simply automatically substitute the wine with the comparable vintage. Please be assured that we will only substitute with a vintage for the same type, varietal and winery.
Weather:
During extreme weather during the Summer and Winter months we do recommend delaying shipments. We do not like to ship if the weather is above 85 degrees or below 32 degrees. To ensure the safety of your product we do recommend holding the shipment. We will hold in our temperature controlled facility until weather permits.
During Checkout you may Choose the Hold Until Safe and we will ship it once weather conditions are suitable
In this case, we will watch the weather closely and will remove the hold and ship your order as soon as conditions permit. The release dates will vary, and because there is no specified date for delivery, the warehouses will ship it as weather permits. If the Hold Until Safe option is released and your order is shipped, you will receive a shipping notice with the tracking number link.
