Cava Tantum Ergo Vintage - Sparkling Wine

Cava Tantum Ergo Vintage - Sparkling Wine, from Hispano Suizas, is a highly ambitious sparkling wine, produced only from high-quality harvests of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir grapes in the Utiel-Requena region. The grapes are vinified with special care, including Pinot Noir using the blanc de noir technique, and the musts ferment in oak barrels. Once bottled, it undergoes a slow second fermentation and remains on its lees for 44 months, an extended aging process that contributes to its depth, creaminess, and elegance.

In the glass, it presents a lemon-yellow color with slight greenish reflections. The aroma reveals intensity, complexity, and distinction, with notes of ripe fruit, stone fruit, small red berries, dried fruit, and hints of pastry, vanilla, butter, and sweet spices. On the palate, it is creamy, ample, and enveloping, with very well-integrated bubbles, a full texture, and a long finish, balanced by harmonious acidity. It should be served at 8°C and pairs very well with meats, roasts, poultry, and spicy dishes.
