Barcino Cava Brut

Barcino Cava Brut is a sparkling wine from Spain's Cava region, crafted using the traditional method. This elegant blend comprises Xarel·lo, Macabeo, and Parellada grapes, each contributing distinct characteristics to the wine.

The vineyards are situated near Barcelona in the Alt Penedès subregion, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea at an elevation of 176 meters. The grapes are harvested and fermented, followed by a secondary fermentation in the bottle, a hallmark of quality sparkling wines like Champagne and Cava. The wine is aged for 12 months on the lees, surpassing the minimum requirement of 9 months for Cava, enhancing its complexity and depth.

In the glass, Barcino Cava Brut presents a pale straw color with fine, persistent bubbles. On the nose, it offers crisp aromas of white fruits, such as apple and pear, complemented by subtle notes of green herbs. The palate is lean and juicy, featuring flavors of citrus and tree fruits, with a touch of minerality. The finish is clean and refreshing, marked by lemony notes and a slight bitterness that adds to its complexity.

This versatile sparkling wine pairs well with a variety of dishes, including shellfish, lean fish, cured meats, and as an aperitif. Its crisp acidity and refreshing profile make it an excellent choice for celebrations or casual gatherings.

Barcino Cava Brut embodies the rich winemaking heritage of the Penedès region, offering a delightful and accessible sparkling wine that reflects the traditional craftsmanship of Spanish Cava.
