Segura viudas Brut rosÉ accolades
Recommended
"The real surprise of the tasting was the Segura Viudas Brut Rosé, a Cava, which some were afraid would be bubble-gum sweet because of its vivid pink color. While this Spanish sparkler was filled with fresh strawberry fruit flavors, it was a dry wine with a refreshing citrus finish...'I was flabbergasted by it,' said Hall, who selected it as one of her favorites. 'I never thought I'd like a rosé.' "

"This week Ben Carter has a bottle of a holiday bargain bubbly for us: Segura Viudas Brut Rosé. At about $9, this is a cava (a sparkling wine from Spain) that is always in my fridge. I think you'll like it -- and don't forget to pick up fried chicken on the way home. That was a tip from Ben some months ago and it turned out to be a great match."

"Dry and austere in the middle, with a touch of tannic astringency, this softens into a sweeter end. Serve it with morcilla and white beans."

"A lively number with kick and effervescence. The nose is kind with light fruits and a whiff of chocolate. Plum and raspberry flavors are nice and accented by earthy spice, while the wine's texture and structure seem more than solid, given it's everyday price."
