We thought that it was time to evolve and following Alta Alella philosophy we have made a step forward with our product PRIVAT NU. After a technical deep study with demonstrable facts (analysis, etc.) we offer this cava, sign and product of our identity, modern and healthy, made with Pansa Blanca (Xarel.lo) variety and historically adapted to our environment and D.O. Alella. We are confident that this is the start towards a new concept in which the word nature takes its entirety.
THE CELLAR Located between Alella and Tiana, in the D.O. Alella and D.O. Cava, Can Genís is an organic farming that has a particular orientation, the vineyards are located on slopes and terraces that highlight the properties of each grape variety.
SOIL The vineyards are located between 100 and 250 meters above sea level on sandy soil, acid, sandy-loam texture and low levels of limestone, organic matter and water retention, which deeply highlights the characteristics of the obtained grapes .
ELABORATION Organic grapes from which we obtain base organic wine and we use the "Methode Champenoise". Raised a minimum of 15 months in the bottle and released without any dosage. No sulfites are added or other products in the whole process.
VINTAGE 2008 Unusual dry winter followed by a rainy spring. Few hours of sun in summer, soft temperatures and an autumn with plenty of rain that brings an important delay on the ripening obtaining highest acidities, moderated graduations and different sanitary conditions that depend on the variety.
The estate is just 2 km from the Mediterranean, with the vineyards planted on slopes and terraces between 150 and 300 meters altitude. There are currently 6 hectares of vineyards in production at Can Genis, with a further 6.5 hectares being planted. The red varieties planted are Pinot... Noir, Syrah, Mataró and Cabernet Sauvignon, whilst the whites are Pansa Blanca, Chardonnay, Viogner and Sauvignon Blanc. The cellar is specifically designed for micro-vinifications.
