Rimarts Uvae 2016
The exquisitely crafted Cava Rimarts Uvae is the top-shelf Spanish sparkling wine of the Rimarts winery, a family-run business that produces fine artisan sparklers in the heart of Penedès.
Made from a blend of old-vines Xarel·lo and Chardonnay coming from little parcels, this Brut Nature Gran Reserva Cava is produced following the traditional Cava method.
As for the vinification, the Chardonnay grapes were fermented in oak barrels, and the Xarel·lo in stainless steel tanks.
Then this Cava from Penedès was bottled, completed secondary fermentation and was aged for a minimum of 80 months in the cellar.

| Appearance | The Cava Rimarts Uvae is medium straw with some golden tinges. |
|---|---|
| Nose | Balance, complexity and sophistication: this blend of Xarel·lo and Chardonnay from Penedès has it all. Remembrances of fine lees, combined with notes of pastry and butter, some hints of aromatic herbs, quince and honey, a dash of flowers and dry fruit and a suprising peppery tone. |
| Palate | Bold and deep, this Gran Reserva Brut Nature of the Rimarts winery has a creamy, delicate body and seductive, tiny bubbles. Some balsamic notions, remembrances of French patisserie, nuances of Mediterranean garrigue, dry fruit and white flowers, a touch of citrus and some slightly bitter nuances. Fresh and lively, with an excellent acidity and a long, complex finish. |
| Our personal opinion | The Cava Rimarts Uvae 2016 is a great sparkling wine for a special occasion. |
