Pere Ventura Cava Primer Brut Reserva
Description
Appearance: straw yellow tones with green-gold highlights. Fine, firm beards rising briskly and forming a perfect rosary. On the nose: young, delicate, spring-like aroma with an evocative fruity freshness, an expression of citrus and orange blossoms, topped by soft almond and toasty notes. On the palate: a sensation of balance and freshness, with well integrated bubbles accompanying its fruity with subtle hints of ageing.

Viticulture
Grapes from vineyards in the Lower and Central Penedès, all managed by Pere Ventura´s team of viticultural experts who ensure the vines (more than 15 years old) are cultivated in a sustainable and environmentally friendly manner. The grapes for the PRIMER Reserva Brut grow in poor, deep, well-drained soils, around 250 meters above sea level, obtaining maximum yields of 12,000 kg/hectare.
Vinification
Soft pneumatic pressing to 4.8 bar, having cooled the grapes to 14-15°C. Split of free run juice at 55%, followed by static settling. Fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature between 16-18°C. Careful blending of the three grape varietals which go into PRIMER Reserva Brut, followed by clarification. Second fermentation in bottle respecting the Traditional Method. The ageing on the lees is in between 15 and 18 months, in the depths of our underground cellars.
Maturation
From 15 to 18 months on the lees, in the depths of our underground cellars.
