Aroma: expressive, very fragrant fruit bouquet. Taste: beautifully structured on the palate with a harmonious balance of ripe fruit and lively, refreshing acidity. In the vineyards of Vilarnau, the vines enjoy excellent growing and ripening conditions. Sheltered by the towering Montserrat mountain range, they benefit from the Catalan Mediterranean climate even at an altitude of 250 meters, with warm, sunny days and cool nights, allowing the grapes to develop richly concentrated aromas. The alluvial soils, which retain water well, ensure a continuous supply of nutrients to the vines, even during hot and dry periods. Pruning takes place every December. In September of the following year, the grapes are harvested and initially vinified separately according to grape variety. Only during the second fermentation in the bottle are Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel Io blended to form the cuvée and then aged in the bottle for at least 18 months before the Cava is disgorged and sealed for sale.","brand":"Caves Vilarnau","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52694888874320,"sku":"V09035","price":11.8,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0896\/3509\/4864\/files\/Vinoscout_Vilarnau-Cava-Brut-Reserva-Organic-Barcelona.webp?v=1771237862"},{"product_id":"chic-barcelona-cava-brut","title":"CHIC Barcelona Cava Brut","description":"\u003cp\u003eA Cava from the \u003cstrong\u003ePere Ventura\u003c\/strong\u003e winery, produced using the traditional method of bottle fermentation – the same method as Champagne, but in the heart of Catalonia.
