Tasting note:
In sight: bright gold in color with amber glow. With a very fine and persistent bubble that rises, with a delicate effervescence, until it forms a perfect crown.
On the nose: highlights the aromatic, limpid, fruity, citrus elegance, with a hint of fresh almond characteristic of traditional cavas. A symphony of subtle but perfectly identifiable aromas.
On the palate: with a pleasant and generous bouquet, precious and refined. On the palate it is full, creamy, with a taste of fresh fruit and freshly made brioche. A cava with a lively flavor in which a silky sensation is combined with a perfect degree of acidity.
Served in wide and deep goblet glasses, like those used for tasting chardonnays, it displays all the complexity of its aromas.
Serving temperature: 8º C
Geology and Soil:
Gran Vintage Brut Gran Reserva comes from only two parcels. The old woman and The Secret. Its old vines give us more terroir and complexity; balance and experience.
The vines from these vineyards are cultivated in the old way and glass pruned as required by winemaking tradition. The average yield they offer is 5.500kg / ha, well below the 12.000 kg / ha authorized by the DO Cava. The grapes are harvested by hand and subjected to a careful selection in all Pere Ventura cavas, viticulture scrupulously respects the parameters of sustainability and respect for the environment.
Gran Vinatage Brut Gran Reserva is a limited edition each that is only made when the vintages are exceptional.
Pairing
E. Made in Spain Gourmet we start from the premise that it can be taken at any time, at any time, always. Alone or accompanying the unique moments of your life.
The complex and subtle balance make it an exquisite companion to the most delicate and refined cuisine. Especially indicated with scallops, seafood, foie mi cuit, 100% ham acorn, almost with what we want.
Preparation:
Harvest and manual selection of the grape; each variety is vinified separately.
Pressing of the whole grape in a pneumatic press at a maximum pressure of 0.5 bar.
Fractionation of the flower must to 50% followed by a static settling of between 24 and 48 hours. Spontaneous fermentation with native yeast at a fermentation temperature of 15ºC. A careful coupage of the two varieties is made.
The clarification is peaceful; with a tartaric stabilization and final filtering.
The second fermentation takes place in the bottle itself according to the traditional method of champagne and cava.

Cava is synonymous with excellence, and achieving it requires genuineness. This is guaranteed by the entire production process which, at the same time, offers different types of product -according to the aging and its sugar content-, which make Cava one of the most versatile drinks in the world.
To the already guaranteed quality that the traditional method implies, a more demanding classification is added with the introduction of the categories of Cava de Guarda and Guarda Superior. All this to better identify the origin and traceability of each of our little jewels and to more clearly identify the Cava segments according to their aging. A unique classification that places DO Cava at the forefront of quality sparkling wines that follow the traditional method.
Knowing its categories is entering a world of flavors and history... The one that gives each bottle the aging in the cellar. The months of storage are the ones that will decide these categories, from the Cava de Guarda (minimum 9 months) to those of Guarda Superior, with a rest period of more than 18 months (RESERVE), 30 months (GREAT RESERVE) or those valued Cavas from Paraje Calificado, aged for more than 36 months.
In short, a multitude of options to enjoy, and a lot, not only of the quality of the Cava but of its infinite pairing options.
Types of Cava
Versatility multiplies when we talk about the different types of Cava allowed based on added sugar. Thus, in each category we can also choose based on the type. From Brut Nature (without added sugar) to Sweet Cava -ideal for a pleasant after-dinner meal- we have endless options that include Brut, Extra Brut, Semi Dry and Dry. The Gran Reserva and Cava de Paraje categories are only allowed to offer the Brut types (Brut Nature, Extra Brut and Brut).
