Pedregar is made according to the principles of organic and regenerative viticulture, which ensures not only high-quality grapes but also care for the environment.
This cava is Brut Nature, meaning it is dry and clean.
It is great for pairing with seafood, delicate fish or white meat, but also for enjoying on special occasions.
Grape variety: 100% Garnatxa Negra
Vineyard:
The vineyard is planted on calcareous soils, which give the wine a mineral character and a deep expression of terroir. The Costers de l'Anoia area has a Mediterranean climate with mild winters and hot, dry summers. The proximity of the sea moderates temperature fluctuations, while the Litoral mountains protect the vineyards from excess humidity and the Prelitoral and Montserrat mountains from the cold
of the Pyrenees. AT Roca Pedregar is a single-plot Corpinnat wine and takes its name from the vineyard where it originates. Cool, 35-year-old vines of the Garnatxa Negra variety planted on calcareous marl.
Ageing:
After harvesting, the grapes undergo the traditional production method with secondary fermentation in the bottle. The wine ages 10 months on the lees in 300-litre vats.
The secondary fermentation is carried out with concentrated must from the winery's own vineyards, with a minimum ageing period of 60 months on the lees in the bottle. This long ageing period ensures that the wine gains depth and balance. The wine is made as a Brut Nature, meaning it contains no added sugar after the secondary fermentation and retains its dryness and pure expression. This very unusual approach in the production of cava from a red variety offers a unique experience for sparkling wine lovers.
Taste and aroma:
The bouquet reveals delicate fruity notes, particularly of strawberries and raspberries, complemented by light floral accents and hints of pastry and yeast. In the mouth the wine is fresh, mineral and highly balanced, with a fine but long mousse. Its structure is creamy, yet very fresh, giving it a pleasant long finish. The wine is characterised by a perfect balance between fruitiness, mineral character and freshness.
Tasting notes:
The recommended serving temperature is 6–8°C. It is ideal as an aperitif or with dishes such as seafood, creamy dishes, sushi, delicate fish or white poultry meat. Thanks to its complexity and delicacy, however, you can also enjoy it on its own on special occasions.
