Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainMaria Rigol Ordi is a 5th generation family of Cava makers since 1897, based in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia. This organic cava blends Xarel.lo, Macabeu, and Parellada, from 280-450m. It spent at least 36 months on lees prior to a zero disgorge in June 2022. Showing ample development, with toasted biscuit, roasted hazelnut, red apple, lemon, licks of anise, over a bed or river stones. The shining acidity easily carries the autolytic / oxidative notes on the palate, finishing with a lingering lemon pith and peel.
