How about checking out a sparkling wine that is both fun and serious? The Celler Barcelona Cava is fresh, fine and fun to enjoy. This is a gentle brut that is dry, yet not too acidic; a perfect choice for appetizers on the back porch. Medium straw in color with light yellow tint; flowery and bright in the, endearing, core fruit, peach skin in the aromas; medium bodied, soft and smooth on the palate; dry to off day, medium acidity, nicely balanced; offers pleasing flavors of flowers and apples; medium finish, smooth aftertaste.

Celler Barcelona was created by long tenured California Winemaker, Russell Smith, in partnership with World Renowned wineries in Spain. His career in wine making began in 1983 settling in Napa Valley where he honed his craft while working with well known wineries including Joseph Phelps vineyards, Flora Springs and then Becker Vineyards in Texas. He was always captivated by the picturesque vineyards in Spain, so twenty years later he finally returned and decided to pursue his lifelong dream of winemaking along Spain's northeastern coastline where the Mediterranean sun and breezes produce the world's best grapes. He acquired his own vineyards near Barcelona in the Montsant region.The name Celler Barcelona was chosen to honor the great capital city of Cataluña. Every effort has been made to honor sustainable agriculture and environmentally friendly packaging. Celler Barcelona wines are meant to reflect the art, excitement and tradition of Barcelona.
