| Appearance | The Cava Rexach Baqués Gran Carta has a creamy yellow color, with medium to small sized bubbles. |
|---|---|
| Nose | This blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada from Penedès presents medium intensive aromatics that maintain a perfect balance between its grape varietal aromatics and its own crianza ageing notes. There are fine lees aromatics alongside dry earthy notes which present some subtle hazelnut aromas. |
| Palate | This cava has a pleasant, lively, and fresh entrance onto the palate. There are very flavorful fruits that are entwined by subtle and pleasant nuanced fine lees notes, combined with fresh brioche toasts. This Cava by the Rexach Baqués winery has a fresh and fruity finish that is reminiscent of its crianza age leaving behind a slightly bitter aftertaste. |
