- An aromatic, fresh and fruity Cava, with a lively mousse and a refreshing citrus character with delicate floral complexity through to a long, crisp finish.
The two base wines of Macabeo and Parellada were vinified separately. The grapes were chilled to preserve the aromas contained in the skins and to avoid any oxidation. The first fermentation took place at 16°C, and the base wine was blended. The blended wine then underwent secondary fermentation in the bottle, as per the traditional method, during which the characteristic bubbles were produced. Ageing for nine months on the lees added subtle complexity.

Winery | The grapes come from carefully selected vineyards located in Almendralejo, Badajo. The soils in this region are fertile, due to their richness in nutrients. They are also rich in clay, offering great water retention properties which helps to sustain the vines throughout the warm growing season in this Mediterranean climate. The terrain has a practically flat relief and the vines are grown at an average altitude of between 200 and 450 metres above sea level. The vines benefit from a fairly dry climate, with mild winters and high temperatures during the summer, accentuated by the warm breezes |
