Anna de Codorníu

Varietal: Sparkling

Country of Origin: Spain

Appellation: Penedes

Retail Price: $14.99

Tasting Notes: From a centuries-old cava house, this blend of pinot noir and chardonnay spends at least a year on the lees, before being disgorged and prepared for shipment. The effervescence is delicate and persistent. The nose and palate of cherry, red berry and tree fruit add to the complexity and balance. A true bargain, given its price and high level of quality.

Wine Rating System

Our reviewers are given a topic (varietal, drinking occasion, price) six times a year and asked to select 3-5 wines that fit that criteria for review. Wine reviews include brief tasting notes, a rating and the wine’s retail price (which can vary from store to store and market to market). Unless noted otherwise, the price reflects a 750-ml. bottle. If you’re a beverage professional with a specialty in wine and you’re interested in participating in the panel, please contact managing editor Kyle Swartz at kswartz@epgmediallc.com or 203-855-8499 x2225.
