Read Basco Fine Foods Reviews

Celler Kripta Franc Reserva 2021 is a cava with a light straw color and green hues. It has slow-evolving fine and persistent bubbles with good bead formation. The wine is clean and very fruity, with an apple touch and caramel notes against a mint and herbal background. The finish is elegant and balanced, with fruity and fresh flavors of ripe apple and syrup. The bubbles are well-integrated, with an excellent sugar-acidity balance. The aftertaste is long and delicate. This cava is a limited production, with numbered bottles and a minimum ageing of 24 months. It's perfect as an aperitif, and pairs well with ham, cured meats and sausages, seafood, fish with sauce, rice, poultry, meats, semi-cured cheeses, and desserts.

I know this wine but have never had the 2017 vintage. However when I received my delivery I discovered my bottles were actually 2018. I should not have worried ! It was brilliant. There were loads of beautiful tiny bubbles and it was creamy in the palate you could have had it with allle pie ! We had it with a chorizo and prawn drive dish - drier than a paella, and it was an absolutely perfect match. Loved it and would highly recommend it. 5 star plus!

This is an excellent Cava and deserves a high profile - much superior to the over rated Prosecco. I prefer to leave open for a while to allow fizz to reduce.
