Torre Oria Cava Brut NV

God only knows why I'm suddenly drinking what are essentially holiday party wines - cheap sparklers that most folks should enjoy - but what the heck, why not, right? This is another inexpensive sparkling wine that'd probably work best served to friends and family around the winter holidays. It's a fairly pale yellow and appears to be somewhat bubblier than most sparkling wines, which makes it look incredibly appealing in the glass. The nose is subdued, offering up white sage, honey, and Meyer lemon, but the taste of the stuff is all smooth white flowers, clover honey, and gentle acidity (to me, much less than is usual in cava).

Fun, nothing too challenging, and just sweet enough to be acceptable to basically everyone, this would be another great choice for your next holiday party. Yes, there are better sparkling wines out there, but they cost at least four bucks more than this one does, so get out there and get drinking!
