Cava 1919 vintage 2010

We bought this bottle of cava 1919 of the 2010 vintage at the lobby of the Manila, on the way to dinner at a nearby restaurant. Of the selection they have, this seemed to be a reasonable wine at a reasonable price. Dinner did not merit opening the bottle, so we brought it back to the hotel. The wine is made by Casa Rojo and more info could be got from their Website. The wine-making concern grows and makes wines across Spain, with wines from a large variety of DOs. This vintage cava only uses one of the traditional triad, and is made from pure Maccabeo (or Viura), and was bottle matured for 12 months. The other white cava from this estate is made from the international Chardonnay grape. Both are Brut Nature wines. I shall look forwards to tasting this wine.
