Description
Fine, delicate aromas, combining tones of green apple and pear, with light resonances of Mediterranean fruits –peach, melon and pineapple, over a base of citrus, all beautifully balanced by light toasty aromas from bottle maturation. The palate is refreshing, the sparkle balancing the green and citrus fruits. It is light but long and elegant. Pale yellow, with bright hints of green. A fine, persistent and abundant sparkle lifting to a good crown.
Picking is done by hand, and the grapes are brought to the winery in 25kg capacity plastic boxes. From these grapes, in pneumatic presses we obtain the grape juice. The juice is left to rest for 24 hours in a static decantation to drop its sediment. Once it is clean, it is transferred to the fermentation tanks, keeping each variety separate from the others. The first fermentation is done in stainless steel tanks, at controlled temperatures between 14 and
16°C. Intothese tanks we introduce the fermentation yeasts, which come exclusively from our own Freixenet cultures, and the first fermentation begins. This fermentation lasts between 10 and 12 days, and once it is complete the wine is racked and clarified and blend is prepared ready for bottling, and the secondary fermentation in bottle.
