The 2009 Milesime Brut Reserva is pure Chardonnay aged in contact with the lees for 40 months, which shows an aniseed-driven nose with complementary notes of fennel, apple tart and yeast with a touch of caramel. The palate is fresh, with a creamy texture of small bubbles, good acidity and precise flavors. Drink now. Juve & Camps is a very popular Cava producer in Spain, which seems to have improved its range and added a few luxury cuvees to their range while also moving to organic farming practices.
