6 bottles that make the perfect Mother's Day Gift

1. Freixenet Cordon Negro

$14.95

Get all the bubbles without breaking the bank with this light and refreshing cava. This special bottle is created from a unique blend of three traditional white grape varietals indigenous to Penedès, southwest of Barcelona. While this may be Spain's traditional method sparkler, Freixenet Cordon Negro is a very modern cava.

Mom will love the fine, delicate aromas on the nose that see notes of green apple and pear blend with light hints of Mediterranean fruits. Soak in flavours of peach, melon and pineapple floating over a citrusy base. It's beautifully balanced with light, toasty aromas from bottle maturation. Buy it as a gift or serve it with dinner — Freixenet Cordon Negro pairs well with a saucy paella, crispy fried calamari or with cured meat and Manchego cheese.
