The Segura Viudas Cava Brut Reserva Heredad appears straw yellow in color in the glass, with a small, fine, plentiful mousse. The opening aromas are of the ageing on lees, lightly smokey, with touches of biscuit or bread, which are followed by hints of honey, fruit and flower petals. The palate is excellent, fruity and full of flavor, with dried fruits from the lees ageing, but very elegant, giving the drinker a delightful sense of abundance.
Reserva Heredad was created to express style, in the world of top of the range sparkling wines. We make it with the objective of offering an elegant, versatile Cava. To do this, we select only the very best wines from each vintage, which will then age in bottle, in contact with the lees, for more than 24 months. This ageing ends when the winery expert gives every bottle the magic touch with the last “poignettage” or shake of the wrist, which intensifies the contact of the lees with the wine, and creates a more complex bouquet.
Wine Spectator Review:
A firm version, with a fine mousse, this elegant Cava offers a delicate underpinning of smoky minerality woven with detailed notes of steeped peach and raspberry fruit, pickled ginger and blood orange zest. Macabeo and Parellada. Drink now through 2025. 25,000 cases made, 9,000 cases imported.
