Segura Viudas Reserva Heredad NV | 750 ml.

WS92 Wine & Spirits August 1, 2011

"A selection of macabeo and parellada grown at estate vineyards in the Alt Penedes, Reserva Heredad is a complex and heady Cava that delivers on its richness without sweetness. Its potent depth of flavor has a smoky minerality and fresh apple-skin notes. This is full and meaty enough to serve with roast chicken or albondigas de ternera (veal meatballs)." (92 pts.)

RP88 Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate 1st May 2011

"The Non-Vintage Reserva Heredad is made entirely from 2006 fruit, Macabeo 67% and Parellada 33%. It is essentially a vintage selection of the best fruit from a given year. Mineral, smoked nuts, green apple, and floral notes inform the nose leading to a crisp, refreshing, nicely proportioned Cava that will provide pleasure for another 1–2 years." (88 pts.)

WE88 Wine Enthusiast 11/1/2013

"Fresh, clean apple and white-peach aromas are good but not overly expressive or complex. This feels fresh and lifted, with minerally, stony flavors of apple and lime. A clean, pointed finish feels nice and tastes like lettuce and bitter greens." (88 pts.)

ST88 Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar Sep/Oct 2008

"Pale gold with a steady bead. Lime, pear and floral aromas are complicated by tarragon, smoke and talc. Dry, sharply focused citrus flavors are firmed by refreshingly bitter lime zest and white pepper notes. A brisk, grown-up style of bubbly, which you’d never guess from the packaging, which looks like it came out of a Conan the Barbarian comic. Pull this Dungeons & Dragons-looking, pewter-decked bottle out and watch your date call for a taxi. It won’t matter because this is packaging worthy of a Dungeon Master, and you’re used to drinking alone, anyway! Serve this in a skull-shaped tankard." (88 pts.)
