Cuvee barcelona 1872 pays tribute to our origins commemorating the year in which josep raventos crafted the first bottle of cava.
A brut cava made as in the past reviving the original and readapting it to the present. A cava with rich aromatic nuances creaminess and intense expression.
And draped in a bottle inspired in our own history typical modernist stained glass windows. Winegrowing the grapes used to make cuvee barcelona 1872 are from the local varietals macabeu xarello and parellada carefully picked on vineyards located in the penedes region not far from the coast. The harvest commences at the end of august and lasts until the end of september when the parellada grapes which are grown on higher ground have ripened.
Good ripening that respects the grape’s acidity provides us with raw material with great cellaring potential. Winemaking for this cava we have reproduced the same techniques used half a century ago in our winery readapting them to today.
