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: Free-run wine
The free-run wine is the wine that flows out of the vat by gravity at the time of running off. The marc soaked in wine is then pressed to extract a rich and tannic wine. Free-run wine and press wine are then aged separately and eventually blended by the winemaker in proportions defined according to the type of wine being made.
