WINEMAKER'S NOTE
Segura Viudas Brut Reserva, created from a blend of reserve and non-vintage wines, is clean
and delicate, yet rich in flavor.
Brut Reserva is a cuvée of Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel-lo grapes grown in the renowned
Penedès region of Spain. The wine is vinified according to méthode champenoise technique
and is aged in the bottle for up to 2 years.
This fine cuvée is fairly crisp with an interesting floral note and mouth-pleasing sensation of creaminess.
Expert Reviews

BackgroundFruitiness, freshness and complexity are the three principal defining characteristics of Segura Viudas Brut Reserva. The fruit and the freshness stem from the meticulous care with which we handle our grapes. These are all picked by hand and brought to the winery in 25kg capacity self draining plastic boxes to prevent grape damage, and the juice possibly oxidising, which would lead to a loss of freshness. The complexity comes from a very special technique, which involves autolysis of the yeast cells in the base wine for 3 months before bottling, and a second autolysis of the yeast cells for a minimum of 15 months ageing in bottle.

Wine EnthusiastTOP 100 BEST BUYS! – NO. 8 ON THE LIST! “After a soda-like start that may seem aggressive, this one really settles into a groove. The nose blends citrus and wild green-herb aromas, while the palate has perfectly composed orange and peach flavors. The finish is sold and around every turn it holds the road. Great for the price. Imported by Freixenet USA.”

Wine & SpiritsTOP VALUE OF THE YEAR “The gentle sparkle of this wine carries scents of honeyed apple and red-apple skin. It’s fragrant and clean, and lasts on fruit, a rich style with balance. For crab cakes.”
