Winemaking

Cava made from organic grapes. The personality of the Cavas from Alta Alella is reinforced in this cava through the use of our most genuine grape variety, Mataró (the name of the Maresme region capital). After a cold maceration for 10 hours to obtain the desired colour, the grapes are gently pressed to obtain the first pressing must, which is then fermented in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature of 15ºC. Made with the traditional method, this cava has been aged on its lees for a minimum of 30 months and is sold just after being disgorged.

Tasting Notes

Sight – Strawberry and toned tile colours that varies by vintage.

Nose – Violet and red fruit aromas, typical of the Mataró variety, with an aftertaste of almonds as a result of the long ageing in bottle.

Palate – Fine silky bubbles on the palate. Tasty flavours resembling those of red fruit and long ageing. Marked minerality and salinity. Very tasty and persistent.
