Pere Ventura, Vintage Brut Gran Reserva Cava, 2017

"This is a signature cava, which unites the body and structure of the Xarel·lo with the floral and fruity qualities of the Chardonnay. The result is a fine, harmonious and subtle cava, whose expressive aromas, creamy touch, and exquisite character are seductive. Appearance: straw colored hue with golden highlights, packed with tiny, fine beads rising like a rosary to form a crown on the surface. On the nose: surprisingly powerful, expressive aromas of yellow flowers, combined with aniseed-infused herbaceous notes such as fennel, characteristic of the Xarel·lo grape variety. On the palate: creamy, lingering and intense with buttery overtones of butterscotch and a bitter almond finish. This cava's creamy, velvety texture is without a doubt very beguiling."
