Wine tasting
In the glass, it appears a deep golden hue, with fine, persistent bubbles that testify to a long and careful ageing.
On the nose, it is refined and layered, with noble toasty notes, fresh bread crust, fine pastry and roasted nuts, layered over baked apple, poached pear and quince, with a touch of spice in the background. Its complexity is understated, yet captivating.
On the palate, it is very dry and fresh, with ample structure and generous texture. The ageing integrates beautifully with the wine’s precise acidity, resulting in a creamy, silky and long finish, with a gentle hint of minerality.
Conservation and consumption recommendations
Store the cava in a cool (10–15 °C), dry place away from direct light. Bottles should be kept in an upright position, especially after disgorgement, to avoid prolonged contact between the wine and the cork.
For best enjoyment, serve between 5 and 8 °C, adjusting the temperature depending on the season and personal preference. Chill gradually (never in the freezer) and keep in an ice bucket with water and ice while serving.
Gastronomy
It shines with grilled or baked monkfish, thanks to its structure that accompanies the dense texture of the fish.
With slightly battered or simply boiled Palamós prawns, the salinity is linked to the minerality of the cava, creating a fresh and elegant combination.
Surprise with light vegetable or shrimp tempura, as the effervescence cleans the fry and keeps the whole thing lively and balanced.
It also accompanies fresh or semi-hard cheeses, such as young sheep's cheese or a soft tupí, reinforcing the lactic notes with a refined acidity.
With vegetable carpaccios—such as zucchini with citrus oil or celery radish with almond oil—the delicacy of the product is highlighted.
And finally, it works very well with white fruits or citrus desserts (lemon, apricot, peach), where the dry finish of the cava adds tension and cleanliness.
