Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainNext to the Cuvée Barriques, this feels arguably more classic in style, with forward, expressive fruit that's aromatic and framed by a delicate toastiness from a minimum of 18 months on lees. A traditional blend of xarel·lo (40%), macabeu (40%), and parellada (20%), it shows a combination of candied green apple, zesty lime, and no shortage of floral lift. The generous elderflower and acacia perfume give the wine an immediacy, which is quite attractive. It could make for a sophisticated alternative to Prosecco, especially given the softer styling with 12 g/L dosage. Either way, it's a very approachable entry point to Cava, with smart packaging to boot.Tasted: 16 November 2025Tasted by: Prices:

It incorporates local Catalan grape varieties: macabeo, xarel-lo, and parellada.

This dry wine has a modest alcohol content of 11.5%, offering nuanced aromas of citrus, toasted nuts, and green apples. Its fresh, dry character and compatibility make it an excellent match with tapas.Tasted: 18 April 2025Tasted by: Prices:
