The Cava Vilarnau Brut Reserva is made from vines located at a considerable altitude, sheltered by the iconic Montserrat mountains.
Made from a traditional DO Cava blend, this Spanish sparkling wine substitutes the well-known Vilarnau Brut Reserva Edición Gaudí.
Produced by the Vilarnau winery, a branch of Grupo González Byass, this sparkler is mainly made from Macabeo, complemented with Parellada and Xarel·lo. Secondary fermentation of the cava Vilarnau Brut Reserva took place inside the bottle, where this Cava from Sant Sadurní d'Anoia was aged for a minimum of 15 on its lees.
