Monasteriolo Cava Brut Rose (NV)

I'm still not quite sure about this one, I might have a few more bottles to try and make a final verdict.

It has a pleasant pink grapefruit color. The nose is mineral, effervescent, and acidic. The body is nicely acidic, dry, and citrus fruit-forward. The finish is largely the same as the body but a bit sweeter.

The one problem with this bottle is that the bubbles were a bit harsh. It was enjoyable though and for the price (USD 6.99 at Trader Joe's in Maple Grove, MN) it is a good option.
