Product notes
PRIMER ORGANIC is a traditional Cava blend made with grapes from our own organically certified vineyards. It is our first Cava with organic certification but is made according to the same process of working the land and interpreting the terroir to get cava with its own identity. We watch over the vines throughout their life cycle to make sure we get the best fruit, using growing practices that are sustainable and eco-friendly throughout the process. PRIMER ORGÀNIC is a cava with roots, that speaks of the terroir, legacy and tradition, of a way of making and envisioning cava, and of where we come from.
Production notes
The grapes for the PRIMER RESERVA BRUT grow in poor, deep, welldrained soils, around 250 meters above sea level, obtaining maximum yields of 12,000 kg/hectare. Soft pneumatic pressing to 4.8 bar, having cooled the grapes to 14 - 15 °C (57° F - 59° F). Split of free run juice at 55%, followed by static settling. Fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature between 16 - 18 °C (60° F - 64° F). Careful blending of the three grape varieties which go into PRIMER RESERVA BRUT, followed by clarification. Second fermentation in bottle respecting the Traditional Method. Aged from 15 to 18 months on the lees, in the depths of our underground cellars.
Tasting notes
t is light yellow in appearance with fine, well-incorporated bubbles. It is generous on the nose, with fragrances of apples and citrus, and the toasted notes from its ageing. It is fresh and big on the palate, well balanced, with flavours ranging from acacia blossoms to citrus and white fruit, like lime and red apples, and secondary notes from the long ageing reminiscent of dried fruit and cereals, plus toasted notes. It is persistent and maintains a perfect balance of body and freshness with well-integrated bubbles.
