Freixenet Elyssia Gran Cuvée Brut Cava

Short Description

Elyssia Gran Cuvee Brut Freixenet - Elyssia has the varieties used to make the base wine for this Cava are Pinot Noir; principally, and Trepat. We harvest the Pinot Noir at the beginning of September. It is a grape variety with a low tannic structure, not particularly full bodied, but elegantly fruity on the palate. These grapes are grown in our Mas Bernich estate, in the village of Masquefa in the High Penedes. The trepat, which is a later ripener, is harvested towards the end of September, and has its origins in Serral, part of the region of Conca de Barbera, in the province of Tarragona, a naturally chalky area, with soils low in organic matter. The climate of this alluvial valley creates a perfect environment for vine growing, and in particular the Trepat varietal, creating a clean, light, refreshing structure with great aromatic expression. - sold by Red & White
