Kripta Franc Kripta Franc Brut Reserva is an exceptional cava produced by Agustí Torelló Mata in the Penedès region, Catalonia. Made with the traditional grapes Macabeo, Xarel·lo, and Parellada, which are hand-selected to ensure the highest quality. The primary fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks, preserving the freshness and fruity aromas of the grapes. The second fermentation occurs in the bottle, following the traditional method of cava. This process allows it to develop a fine and persistent bubble. It ages on its lees for a minimum period of 30 months, giving it greater complexity and depth. The disgorging is done manually without the addition of expedition liqueur, resulting in a brut nature cava, meaning no added sugars. Kripta Franc Brut Reserva is ideal for pairing with fresh seafood such as oysters, shrimp, and lobster. It also pairs perfectly with grilled or baked white fish. It goes well with soft and creamy cheeses like brie and camembert. It is excellent with white meats such as chicken and turkey, especially when cooked with light sauces. Additionally, it is perfect for appetizers and tapas, such as Iberian ham, toasted almonds, and olives. It can also complement light fruit-based desserts. This cava stands out for its elegance, complexity, and versatility in pairing, reflecting the meticulous production and superior quality of Agustí Torelló Mata.
