Josep M Ferret Guasch Reserva

Light gold in color with tiny floating bubbles casually making their way to the surface as if they have all the time in the world. On the nose, this wine is reserved, showing only a hint of yeast, light fleshy fruits and maybe, if you search for it, floral notes. Alive with acidity and crispness, it shows a hint of apple, but otherwise, think metal or mineral. Maybe sucking on a piece of polished slate would be a good analogy, coated in a light mist of green apple. Although a little to austere at first breathe, a touch more fruit might ease the harsh sharpness. With food, this wine could potentially show a more balanced and entertaining side of itself, letting its hair down. more January 22, 2008
