Discover the grape variety: Parellada

Lively, elegant whites with finely chiselled acidity and a light palate, with aromas of lemon, green apple, white flowers, fresh herbs and discreet mineral notes. Brings freshness and aromatic finesse to Cava DO blends (with macabeo and xarel-lo), defining the taut identity of Catalan sparkling wines. Also as light still whites in Penedès DO and Conca de Barberà DO. Native Catalan variety grown at altitude.

The wine region of Cava

Spain's star traditional-method sparkler, the Iberian equivalent of Champagne. Three Catalan grapes blended: Macabeo (apple, freshness), Xarel-lo (body and herbaceous notes), Parellada (elegance and floral finesse). Chardonnay and Pinot Noir also allowed. From fruit-driven Brut to Gran Reserva (30 months on lees) with brioche and toasted notes.

The word of the wine: Petite arvine

An ancient white grape variety from the Valais (Switzerland), which produces renowned wines suitable for ageing. Viney and sustained by a strong vivacity, these wines express a fine salty touch, the signature of this variety. Petite arvine wines can be dry, tender or made from withered grapes from late harvesting. Syn.: arvine.
