Tasting note:
Appearance:

Aroma:
On the nose, this cava stands out for its elegance and complexity. It offers a first impression of ripe fruits, such as green apple, peach, and citrus, accompanied by soft floral notes. After aeration, subtle bakery aromas emerge, a result of its bottle aging, which adds additional complexity with hints of toasted almond and yeast. This aromatic profile reflects the long aging of the cava, which is usually between 18 and 24 months.

The acidity is well integrated, offering a sensation of freshness that persists throughout the taste. The flavors of white fruits blend with touches of nuts and a mineral aftertaste reminiscent of the coastal terroir of the Alella region, near the Mediterranean Sea. The finish is long and elegant, with a delicate touch of pleasant bitterness that invites you to continue enjoying.
