Tasting note:
In view Coppery salmon color, limpid and bright. Fine, perfectly integrated and persistent bubbles.
On the nose, very evocative, with floral aromas, of red fruit such as strawberry tree cherry and sloe, candied stone fruit such as peach, and spices.
On the palate it is fresh, delicate and very expressive. The notes of red fruit combine with those of the aging with a long and elegant finish.
Served in wide and deep goblet glasses, like those used for tasting chardonnays, it displays all the complexity of its aromas.
Operating temperature: between 8 and 9 ºC
Geology and Soil:
The Pinot Noir vineyard is located in the Massís del Garraf, in the Upper Penedès, at an average altitude of 211 meters and with a Mediterranean climate. The soil is poor, slightly calcareous, with a high content of disaggregated slate rock, and with little water retention capacity. The vines are around twenty years old. The vineyard's production is 7.000 kg / ha, well below the usual average that usually ranges between 10.000 and 12.000 kg / ha. In accordance with the PERE VENTURA philosophy, the viticultural practice is carried out under criteria of sustainability and respect for the environment, trying to intervene as little as possible in the vine and the environment, and accompany the vineyard throughout its life cycle until the optimal time for harvesting. The harvest is manual, and a double selection of the grapes is practiced, in the vineyard and at the selection table.
Pairing
En 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.
A versatile cava that adapts to different moments of consumption. Unbeatable as an aperitif, it offers a range of possibilities as an accompaniment to a meal from start to finish. From pasta made to confectionery, the delicate acidity of red fruit stands out and the bitter touch of dark chocolate stands out.
Preparation:
The rapa is extracted from the grapes (skidded) and it is vatted directly in the press. One part of the grapes is pressed directly and the other is first left to macerate for eight hours in order to obtain different profiles: floral in the short coats and fruity in the long ones. After the pre-fermentation maceration, a soft pressing is carried out at 0,5 bar with a maximum extraction of 55% of the must. Static racking and fermentation for twenty days in stainless steel tanks between 15 and 17 ºC. Second fermentation in the bottle following the Traditional Method.

Authenticity, unique territory, rigorous work, traditional method and the flavor of the Mediterranean.
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.
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).
