Inside Information

MEDIA:

-The Wine Advocate, Oct '16 gave 90 points to 2010 Mestres Visol Gran Reserva Brut Nature. "The 2010 Visol Brut Nature showed a big influence from the contact with the lees in bottle with hints of camphor, bread dough and yeasts, quite balsamic and a touch smoky. It has creamy palate with small bubbles and a sharp, dry finish."

-Vinous Media (Explore All Things Wine), Jan '16 gave 92 points to 2010 Mestres Visol Gran Reserva Brut Nature. "Intensely perfumed with vibrant, clean aromas of fresh citrus fruits, white flowers and dusty minerals. Offers concentrated orange and Anjou pear flavors that fill the palate and are joined by suggestions of toasted grain, fennel, and succulent herbs in the glass."

-International Wine Review, Dec '15 gave 91 points to 2010 Mestres Visol Gran Reserva Brut Nature. "Showing an attractive nose that's pure with mineral and light brioche, the zero dosage Visol is broad in the mouth and richly flavored. It's a beautifully harmonious wine with seamlessly integrated hazelnut and fruit flavors and an extracted, long finish."
