Avinyó is owned by the Esteve Nadal family in the heart of Barcelona. The father planted vines 50 years ago to make wine for his friends, and today the children have taken over, continuing to make fine quality sparkling wines including this top notch, lightly fizzy white. Made from Muscat, it has aromas of pear, honeysuckle, and green apple- but despite being highly aromatic it’s dry. This is one for your wine tasting bucket list!
Serving Suggestion: Chicken or paneer tikka masala. Oysters Rockefeller. Seared ahi tuna w/ basil aÏoli & tamari. Fried calamari.
