NOTES BY OUR SOMMELIERS

👁 of a beautiful pale yellow with fine perlage;

👃🏻 on the nose it expresses fruity notes (apple and banana), elegant hints with aromatic intensity and herbaceous aromas of fennel;

👄 on the palate it stands out for its freshness and pleasantness to drink, with a structured body and good sapidity.

FOOD PAIRINGS

This Cava is a light, fresh and drinkable wine: for this reason it pairs well with fresh and light dishes. We recommend it with fish tapas, paella and salmon tartare.

WINE-MAKING AND REFINEMENT

Cava is Spain's most famous sparkling wine done with the Champenoise Method.
This one in particular is fruity and fresh, extremely interesting for its quality. Made with three traditional varieties (Macabéo or Viura, Xarello and Parellada) plus a complement of Chardonnay which makes it more subtle and velvety. Manual harvest and aging in steel.

its freshness and fragrance.

ORIGIN

TERROIR

Few people today think of Catalonia as a great wine region. Instead, thanks to an ideal climate for growing grapes and sandy soils, it is able to give its Mediterranean soul to the wines. Fresh and light wines are produced as well as structured reds which over time will give important and increasing results.

WINERY

The Raventós Rosell Estate, also known as Heretat Vall-Ventós, is located in the town of Masquefa. Surrounded by vineyards, it is located at the foot of the old road to Montserrat. Around: the farm, the wine-making area and the underground cellars. The farm dates back to the 18th century. Over the years it has undergone changes and during the 1980s it was bought by Joan Raventós Rosell. During this period, new plantings of vines of a dozen different varieties began, in the 40 hectares of vineyards in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia. Today, the winery produces a wide range of wines, including those of the Denomination of Origin Penedès, from grape varieties vinified  in purity such as Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc, red and rosé wines from Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Pinot Noir, and base wine for Cava obtained from the Macabeo, Xarello, Parellada and Chardonnay.
