VINEYARDS | From the plots La Barbera, La Plana, El Plat and El Viader which have deep calcareous soils with a sand-rich loamy texture giving freshness and elegance and El Llac, a 40 year old plot with marine fossils providing structure and complexity. Biodynamic viticulture.
WINEMAKING | Made in the traditional method. Vinification in stainless steel tanks followed by secondary fermentation in bottle, aged for a minimum of 18 months. Extra Brut.
PRESS | 92 WA | “It has a pale and bright color with some green tints denoting youth and is clean and fruit-driven with a Mediterranean nose with notes of fennel and aromatic herbs and a tasty palate. It gives good pleasure for the price; it has tension, balance and fruit but is not heavy and has a tasty, almost salty twist in the finish. This is pure, clean and pleasant, complex and expressive beyond its price point.” - Luis Gutierrez
PRESS | 91 WS |“This vibrant sparkler is sleek and minerally, with fine mousse carrying a well-meshed range of delicate poached pear, persimmon, lemon curd, beeswax and white blossom notes.”
TASTING NOTES |A structured, fresh and complex wine with white floral notes on the nose. The wine is impeccably balanced with a marked minerality, soft and fresh fruit flavors, and some nutty notes. The small, nicely integrated bubbles and saline qualities are in perfect harmony with the slightly creamy texture.
