From the Penedès region of Spain, known for its exceptional Cava production.
Crafted using the traditional method, the same method used in Champagne, this Gran Reserva exemplifies the winery's commitment to quality and tradition.
Using the same grapes as Champagne this same wine would command a price point 2-3x higher if it were made in that region

Description
=
Nuria is a range of very long ageing Gran Reserva of single vineyard. From the best and oldest plots of our estate, carefully hand harvested. Each of them show a unique character that represents the virtues of each variety and terroir. Ms. Núria Claverol is the wife of the founder Mr. Carles Sumarroca, and these cavas are the perfect homage from the family to her.
The wineries longest serving cava with red grapes of pinot noir developed to make a white wine. A 60-month long aging process to complete its elaboration.
Very fresh nose with mineral notes and hints of red fruits, all from pinot noir. At the bottom it leaves light subtle notes of pastry which can be found in long aged cava. On the palate the minerality is more pronounced, together with a refreshing structure and also notes of Asian fruits. Acidity is present in the form of freshness and it is balanced with a small presence of sugars from disgorging.
Pinot noir harvested at night to avoid the extraction of the colouring matter by contact with the skins and the must. 10ºC immediate cooling and utilization of only 40% of the must flower. Static settling 24 hours. Fermentation in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 14 ° C for 18 days. Aged in stacks for a minimum of 60 months.
