Cava Bertha S.XXI Brut Rosé 2016
Availability: In stock
A single varietal Pinot Noir Bertha S.XXI Rosé is a top-notch Spanish rosé sparkling wine made by the Caves Bertha winery and marketed under the Cava designation.
After a meticulous harvesting process, the grapes, coming from estate-owned vineyards, were slightly crushed and underwent a pre-fermentation cold maceration process for 12 hours to extract the delicate rosy colour of this sparkler.
After that, this rosé Cava was fermented in stainless steel tanks at a controlled temperature. Bottled with the addition of sugar and yeasts in order to complete secondary fermentation, the resulting wine was aged for 30-40 months on its lees. After its disgorging, this Cava Gran Reserva was completed with shipping liquor, in a proportion of 8 grams per litre.
A Mediterranean Pinot, Bertha s. XXI Brut Rosé 2016 is sophisticated and lively.
