Characteristics Gala De Vallformosa Brut Reserva

Gala De Vallformosa Brut Gran Reserva is a cava produced from a blend of varieties: Xarel·lo, Macabeo, Chardonnay and Parellada grown from the best "Mas Caballé" and "Can Baltà" vines in Alto Penedès.
The harvest is 100% manual. Macabeo is picked at the beginning of September, Xarel·lo in the middle of September and, finally, Parellada during the first week in October. As for the production, the first fermentation takes place in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature of 14-16 ºC. By contrast, the second fermentation is in the bottle and done by the Traditional Method.
This cava has been aged for around 30 months in the bottle.

Tasting notes Gala De Vallformosa Brut Reserva

On the palate the attack is fresh and lively with great length, elegance, good and balanced acidity. A long and persistent aftertaste.

Pale yellow with golden highlights. Transparent. Fine bubbles and a white crown.

Complexity on the nose where we can encounter fruity and floral notes, combinations of ripe nuances that are a result of the aging (dry fruit and toasted almonds)

Others sparkling wines D.O. Cava

Cava was born under the constant shadow of its French counterpart, Champagne. However, produced over 1,200km away and a gap of over 100 years, Cava was always going to be a completely different product, even if produced using the same method and and sometimes with the same varieties. Firstly the climate and soil have a profound impact on the yields, while the plant strains that thrive here and completely different to those in the Champagne region. Fortunately, as more winemakers are becoming convinced of this, they are producing Cavas with their own personality, showing off the art of the second fermentation in the bottle like no other wine region in the world.
