The 2011 Perles Roses produced with Pinot Noir grapes, is orange-colored and has a nose of candied orange peel and chalk, with notes of smoke, brioche and yeasts. The carbonic gas is well-integrated into the wine, which shows good freshness provided by balanced acidity. Drink now-2016. Some of the traditional Cava houses age their liqueur d’expedition in barrels, which give the wines a smoky, nutty, barrel-fermented feeling to them, as seems to be the case with the Cavas I tasted from Naveran. I liked the character of the wines, combining mineral sensations with plenty of yeast autolysis aromas and that smoky character. Importer: Ole Imports, New Rochelle, NY; www.oleimports.com

The 2009 Perles Roses is a pure Pinot Noir rose Cava aged on its lees for 24 months. It has a very attractive, pale salmon colour. The nose is reticent at first, but offers light aromas of peach skin, pear and rosewater with time. The palate is soft and caressing in the mouth, a mellow rose that builds nicely in the mouth to a peachy, nectarine finish. Drink now. Importer: Ole Imports, New Rochelle, NY; tel. (914) 740-4724
