Product Description
Details
Produced by Can Ràfols dels Caus, Gran Caus Clímax Brut Nature is made from over 20-year-old grapevines planted in the Garraf Massif, a mountain range overlooking the Mediterranean a 30-minute drive from Barcelona. The area has limestone soils with an abundance of marine fossils which bring a peculiar salinity and minerality to the grapes.
The 2018 vintage of this Spanish sparkling wine is, again, a blend of Xarel·lo, Macabeo and Chenin.
Harvested by hand, the grapes were separately fermented and vinified. After the completion of secondary fermentation, Gran Caus Clímax Brut Nature 2019 was aged for 30 months in the bottle before its commercial release.
This is a truly distinctive organic sparkling wine from Penedès.

Despite the funny name, this is a really good sparkler. Characterful and well-crafted.
