Characteristics of the vineyard
Roger Goulart the winery locates the production of grapes for its cavas in the historic Cava area, south of Barcelona, in the so-called basin of the Anoia and Foix rivers. This area is delimited by the Sierra Litoral mountain range that touches the Mediterranean, the Sierra Prelitoral de Mediona-Pontons and the Montserrat massif, orographic elements that give the enclave a special microclimate suitable for the production of the best grapes for the production of Cava. The vineyards are located on different types of land at medium-high altitudes, between 300 and 700 meters above sea level, with yields of between 6,000 and 10,000 Kg/Ha, depending on the varieties and characteristics of the land. We have always worked the vineyard with sustainable practices that respect the environment, and in recent years we have been promoting its conversion to organic.
Winemaking characteristics
Traditional blend of Penedès varieties where Xarel-lo has a special predominance. The grapes are harvested separately, each variety at the optimum moment of ripening, and always in the early hours of the morning to take advantage of the cold of the night, which guarantees freshness and minimizes oxidation. Prior to pressing, the mass of grapes is cooled to avoid loss of aromas. With very low pressing yields we obtain a fine, clear must that is racked prior to fermentation at low temperature for more than 10 days and always with the help of selected yeasts. The tirage marks the beginning of the second fermentation in the bottle and subsequent aging in cellars located at a depth of 30 meters, at a constant temperature of 14ºC throughout the year.
Tasting notes
Pale yellow colored cava with greenish reflections, clean, bright, with a good release of fine bubbles and slight crown formation on the surface. On the nose, very fresh, with intense notes of fresh fruit (apple, pear, citrus, pineapple) and a background of light notes of yeast and bread. The palate is sweet but very balanced with lively acidity that makes it very round and silky. Persistent finish with very fruity and lightly toasted notes on the palate. We recommend serving at a temperature between 6ºC and 8ºC and the use of ice buckets to maintain the temperature during service.
