Cava Brut Nature

Cava is a sparkling wine of Denominació d'Origen (DO) status from Catalonia. It may be white (blanc) or rosé (rosat). The Macabeu, Parellada and Xarel·lo are the most popular and traditional grape varieties for producing cava. Only wines produced in the champenoise traditional methodmay be labelled cava; those produced by other processes may only be called sparkling wines (vins escumosos). About 95% of all cava is produced in the Penedèsarea in Catalonia, with the village of Sant Sadurní d'Anoia being home to many of Catalonia's largest production houses. - wikipediaGENERAL INFORMATIONType of wine: Cava Brut NatureAppellation of Origin: CavaGrape varieties: Macabeo, Xarel·lo, ParelladaAlcohol content: 11,5%Production:Traditional method. Once the cuvée has been obtained from a white perfumed variety such as Macabeo, it is aged in the bottle for 10 months. During this time the bottles are kept horizontal, called ‘ageing in stacks’, at a constant temperature of 15ºC, in order to carry out a second fermentation gathering the lees along the length of the bottle.
