Castellblanc Cava Rosado Brut

Castellblanc Cava Rosado Brut

This Cava Rosado Brut from Castellblanc appears with a delicate red color in the glass with fine bubbles that rise elegantly in the glass.

Scent: Flowers are mixed with red fruits and a hint of freshly baked bread, which originates from the time when the wine has lain with the grape marc.
Taste: Dry yet silky and refreshing and the acid content is well balanced.
Serving suggestion: Shellfish and crustaceans, dishes with smoked meat, poached or grilled fish, rice and pasta dishes, but it is also perfect as an aperitif or with tapas.
Serving temperature: 7-8°C.

Cava Rosato Brut rose does not develop with age.

The wine:

Castellblanc Rosado Brut is made from 70% Trepat and 30% Garnacha. The vines grow in calcareous and clayey soil, which is typical of the region. The typical Mediterranean climate that characterizes the region is ideal for growing grapes. Here are the many hours of sunshine, the mild winters, the not too hot summers and the moderate amount of rain that falls throughout the year.

One of the main elements in the cava production process is the individual treatment of the base wine. In addition, it should not be forgotten that Castellblanc was one of the first companies to use their own yeast. They used microfiltration of the wine before the traditional aging in the bottle. The cava ages 12-18 months in the bottle at a constant temperature that naturally lies between 12º and 14ºC in the cellars under the winery.

The area and the producer:

Castellblanc is one of the oldest cava-producing wineries in the Penedès. Castellblanc was founded in 1908 as a small family business by the Parera family, who brought great passion for oenology and respect for tradition. Mixed with the employees' enthusiasm and great daily effort, it gave a company. They knew how to experiment and how to adapt the products to market demand and customer requirements.
