Vintage
The 2018 vintage for Cava can be defined as a crop of return to normalisation in terms of production volumes. The effort and professionalism of the wine growing sector managed to keep down the attacks of mildew and the result was reflected in a harvest of very good quality.

Winemaking
Grapes are harvested at night to avoid high temperatures and premature fermentations. They are quickly transported to the winemaking cellar and refrigerated at 10ºC to avoid the colour of the skins dyeing the must. Once the must is pressed and each variety has fermented separately at a constant 16ºC to preserve its primary aromas, the must is blended and bottled along with the base wine, to which the yeast and sugar are added to produce the formation of bubbles in the bottle. For the second fermentation, the bottles are kept in underground cellars at a constant 15º-17ºC where the wine is in contact with the lees.

Aging
This Cava spends a minimum of 22 months in the bottle. After this period, sediments are decanted naturally and removed with a minimum loss of sparkling wine and expedition liqueur is added.

Fine, fresh and fruity nose, with good intensity. Pleasant aromas of bakery products in background thanks to the 22 months bottle ageing on the lees.

Fresh, warm, pleasant and round, with a long finish. Well structured in the mouth, fresh and with a long and smooth aftertaste. Clean, complex and balanced. Creamy and reminiscent of mature fruit.

This sparkling wine is perfect as an aperitif as well as an accompaniment for salads, rice and fish dishes. Pairs well with more elaborate cuisine, dishes with sauces and cheese, thanks to it's complexity resulting from the 22 months bottle ageing on the
