Product Description
Details
We are happy to present the sparkling wine Loxarel Brut Nature Garnatxa Blanca, made solely from White Grenache, a variety indigenous to Catalonia that produces bold whites with a great structure.
The grapes come from several plots located at an altitude of 700 metres above sea level in a sub-zone of Penedès called El Pla de Manlleu. The vines are grown following organic farming procedures. This Spanish sparkling wine belongs to the DO Clàssic Penedès.
Crafted by Masia Can Mayol, the first winery to produce a White Grenache sparkler in Penedès, the wine Loxarel Brut Nature Garnatxa Blanca 2019 was vinified following the traditional method and aged for 15 months prior to its commercial release.
The production of this Clàssic Penedès is around 5,000 bottles.
Additional Information
Additional Information
| Appearance | The sparkling wine Loxarel Brut Nature Garnatxa Blanca has a pale, translucent, straw yellow colour with greenish tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This varietal Garnatxa Blanca shows a very original aromatic profile. Notes of pears, apples, citrus, some pastry remembrances, hints of milk bread, subtle touches of dry fruit and a dash of dry earth. |
| Palate | Creamier than traditional Cavas, which tend to be on the dry side, this sparkler of Masia Can Mayol has a smooth, velvety body, a great acidity and well-integrated bubbles. On the palate, it suggests notes of freshly-baked cakes and ripe white fruit. This Clàssic Penedès is linear and tense, with a long, fruity finish. |
| Our personal opinion | Truly original, the sparkling wine Loxarel Brut Nature Garnatxa Blanca 2019 proves that White Grenache can also produce interesting sparkling wines. |
