2007 Cellers Puig i Roca Xarello Penedès Augustus

2007 Cellers Puig i Roca Xarello Penedès Augustus – Spain, Catalunya, Penedès (8/1/2009)
A new wine from this producer from 100% Xarel-lo, one of the traditional component varietals of Cava. Spicy, ripe white fruit, very fruity indeed, but good acidity, a clear oak influence, reminds me of the chardonnay of this producer, where’s the typicity? Technically a good wine, but considering the price and the international character, why bother? (Costs about 16 euro in Spain.) (88 pts.)
