Straw yellow with greenish highlights. Fine and persistent bubble, evolving slowly, making chains and with crown presence. Fine ageing aromatics, with fresh butter lactic notes on a ripe fruity bottom. In the mouth has a pleasant and fresh attack, following by an ample developement, with a very well integrated carbonic. The ageing notes are melting with ripe fruit, toasted hints and dried fruits. The finish is ample, long and persistent.
What the critics say...

The 2006 Brut Nature Gran Reserva displays an expressive bouquet of slate/mineral, pear, apple, brioche, and white flowers. Dry, crisp, and refreshing on the palate, it has excellent depth, some complex flavors, and a lengthy finish.
With the aim to elaborate Cava in its maximum expression, three autochthonous varieties are selected from the best subfields of the Penedés: Xarel.lo, Parellada and Macabeo, to which the mediterranean weather will give a few singular characteristics and personality. With a careful process... which goes from the election of the best ´crus of the Penedés´, passing a rigorous control of the vineyards, up to a selection and harvest by hand... are the key of its secret: Technology and tradition go together to respect and to promote the virtudes of its Cavas.
