Tasting note
Colour & Appearance
A pale, clear hue in warm straw yellow with fine reflections.
Nose
Expressive, deep and complex. Dense notes of ripe apples and juicy citrus fruits meet complex toasted notes, a touch of smoke and the scent of freshly baked pastries.
Palate
On the palate, this sparkling wine reveals itself to be immensely velvety and creamy with a refined perlage. Lively in its opening and carried by a subtle freshness, nuances of ripe fruit and warm apple pie emerge. Mouth-filling and structured, the wine feels wonderfully focused and taut at the same time thanks to its juicy vein.
Finish
A long-lasting, complex finish of great individuality and clear character.
Terroir & Origin
Grown in the soils characterised by limestone and fossil deposits around Sant Sadurní d’Anoia in Penedès. The winery works with complete conviction according to biodynamic guidelines and holds the Demeter certificate.
Grape Variety & Vinification
A classic cuvée of the indigenous grape varieties Xarello, Macabeu and Parellada, complemented by a small proportion of Chardonnay. Produced according to the traditional method, this Brut aged on its lees for over 50 months. The dosage is completed by a masterfully guarded solera system, in which wines from older vintages are aged oxidatively.
Food Pairings
Pairs brilliantly with seafood, pan-roasted turbot, mildly aged hard cheese or refined poultry terrine.
Special Features
The combination of a solera dosage nurtured for decades and years of bottle ageing lends this wine a depth of flavour that effortlessly competes with the great European sparkling wine classics.
