92+ points Benjamin Herzog (Falstaff): "Bright green-gold. Smoky nose framed by greengage, tarragon and green fennel, some bakery goods. Fine mousse. On the palate salty note with brine and tart quince compote, nutmeg, good complexity. Unconventionally elegant example, which is juicy and persistent. Alcohol 12%. (11/19/21)"
92 points Peñín Guide to Spanish Wine: "(xarel.lo, macabeo, parellada). Colour: bright straw. Nose: fresh fruit, dried herbs, fine lees, floral. Palate: fresh, fruity, flavourful, good acidity. (2022)"
91 points Wine Spectator: "This sparkler has an appealing toasty edge, with fresh, nicely balanced layers of pineapple, smoke, almond and brioche flavors. The mousse shows finesse. Xarel-lo, Macabeo and Parellada. Disgorged August 2020. Drink now through 2024. 3,333 cases made, 67 cases imported. (9/30/21)"
90 points Wine Enthusiast: "Bee's wax, candle wax and malty honey notes comprise the nose on this tight and juicy sparkler that's primed to the hilt with malic acid. Apple cider and background citrus flavors finish long due to aggressive core acidity. As per usual, Raventós got this right. (Dec 2021)"
