Winemaker's Notes
Bright, light strawberry pink, with hints of salmon, or onion skin, with a pale rim. A fine, abundant and consistent mousse, rising to a good crown. Youthful fruit aromas of strawberry, redcurrant and grenadine. Refreshing on the palate, full of cherry fruit and a light acidity. A soft finish to the back of the palate gives a lovely approachable balance to this very drinkable cava.
Sommelier's Recommendation
A refreshing balanced cava thanks to its meticulous blending and finishing - the Trepat delivering the fruit and the Garnacha the taste. With these characteristics it is perfect with most appetizers or starters, whether fish or vegetable, and it is ideal with seafood rice, with salmon, or with grilled tuna where it combines both in color and in flavor. It is also a joy just as a mid-afternoon drink.
87 POINTS, BEST BUY
"Simple, light strawberry aromas form a good opening. The palate is juicy and bright, with citrus and nectarine flavors. There's nothing complicated or overreaching here; it's easygoing, clean and finishes with pepper and brown sugar."
