Country: Spain Region: Penedes
Varietal: Macabeo (Macabeu), Xarel-lo, Parellada
Vintage: 2020 Colour: White Style: Sparkling
Producer: Avinyo
Description:
Avinyó can trace the lineage of its estate back to 990. Needless to say, quite a lot has changed in the 1000+ year history of the land, but once vineyards were planted in the 16th century, the desire to have grapes on-hand only grew. For this reserve expression, the usual trifecta of Spanish Cava grapes--Parellada, Xarel-lo, and Macabeo--are employed. As is a custom for the house, only free-run juice of the pressed berries is fermented. It then spends time in oak barrels before aging 24 months in a bottle on the lees. This fine sparkler could easily be mistaken for a high-end Champagne.
Tasting Note:
Pinpoint bubbles display red fruits, roasted apples, and a crisp, mineral-driven finish. This fresh, vibrant sparkling wine showcases ample fruit and notes of fresh baked bread.
Food Matches: Aperitif / Seafood / Caviar / Smoked Fish
