"This particular wine was quite refreshing and the sugar seemed to act more as a rounding of the palate and brightening of the fruit, never straying into what I’d call a “syrup” mode as some wines are apt to do. The flavors were centered around apples, pear and a touch of stone fruit, with a slightly creamier texture than the Brut."

"For those looking for a little less oak, we recommend the Segura Viudas Extra Dry, which has just the slightest bit of sweetness alongside notes of cream and lemon. It has softer mineral flavors than other wines from this producer, and would definitely be nice with pre-dinner snacks or a Valentine's Day brunch. For eight bucks, you could certainly do worse."

"Better than your average, run-of-the mill Extra Dry. The nose deals mellow apple and green-herb aromas, while the palate has a level of sweetness that doesn't bog things down. Kind flavors of ripe apple, melon and spice lead to a finish that flows nicely."

"A gem in the semisweet category, with touches of melon and banana on the nose. The palate pours on the sweet apple cider and warm citrus, while the finish is on the mark. This is a generous, no-brainer of a bubbly; Just uncork, pour, sip and smile."
