Bright golden yellow with a fine, persistent perlage - a cava that already promises maturity and substance in appearance.<\/p>\n
The Laiet\u00e0 2019 is intense and multi-layered, with pronounced flavours that Bread crust flavours<\/strong>, which bear witness to the long yeast ageing period of at least 30 months. These are joined by Walnut notes<\/strong> and a fascinating herbal flavour. Particularly noteworthy: the freshness is retained despite the maturity, emphasised by delicate white flowers<\/strong>, which give the sparkling wine elegance and complexity.<\/p>\n This is where the true personality of this cava is revealed.

The pronounced Minerality<\/strong> des Granitsandbodens \u201eSaul\u00f3\u201d dominiert, begleitet von Tobacco nuances<\/strong> and ripe yellow apple<\/strong>. The finale captivates with a typical, reminiscent Sage<\/strong> reminiscent of bitterness - the signature of the Xarel.lo grape. The zero dosage reinforces this unadorned, direct character.

It is characterised by the minimal addition of sulphur and the unique granite sand soil, which ensures tangy acidity and low pH values.<\/p>\n The steely texture and spicy bitterness make Laiet\u00e0 the ideal accompaniment for Paella<\/strong> and others Rice pans<\/strong> with seafood or vegetables. Also excellent with Anchovies with lardo bacon<\/strong> - The saltiness of the fish harmonises perfectly with the mineral structure of the cava.<\/p>\n An authentic cava with a strong character that proves that great sparkling wines can also be produced outside of the Pened\u00e8s.
