TASTING NOTES
Appearance: A beautiful, aged gold colour, with light golden flecks. Extremely fine, vigorous, lasting bubbles.
Nose: An extraordinary explosion of fruity flavours: apricot, cherimoya, loquat, peach and a hint of liquorice. The bubbles are fine, vigorous and lasting in the glass.
Mouth: A rounded, creamy, very persistent sensation in the mouth, surprising with its freshness thanks to its excellent balance between acidity and sweetness. The bubbles are fine and vigorous on the palate, highlighting the sensation of freshness and zest.
Serving: Alegría de Tharsys can be enjoyed at any time, without any hard and fast rules, depending on the moment, the company, the time of day and the utensils you have.
It can be served very cold, at 3ºC, or even with ice, accompanied with fruit, yoghurt, compote, tasty salmon and avocado toast, Benedictine eggs, sweet cakes, etc.
It is also wonderful mixed with fresh peach or orange juice, fresh verbena leaves or lime peel.
The pleasure is multiplied enormously if accompanied with some sea or mountain views, while the sun is setting on the horizon. But what makes Alegría de Tharsys extraordinarily good is sharing it with friends, anywhere and at any time.
