Grape variety: Macabeo & Chardonnay

Production: Cava de Guarda Superior with a minimum of 36 months of lees aging; separate vinification of both varieties; pneumatic draining at low temperature exclusively for Mosto flor; partial barrel aging of part of the base wine for added finesse and complexity; tirage in the first months of the year; second fermentation and long maturation at a constant cool cellar temperature.

Origin: Various plots in the Utiel-Requena region, Spain

Soils: Clay-limestone soils (Macabeo) and stony-limestone soils (Chardonnay) — both with excellent drainage and high mineral tension.

Orientation: Different plot orientations depending on the variety; optimal locations for early Chardonnay and later ripening Macabeo harvests.

Climate: Continental with Mediterranean influences — warm days, cool nights and strong temperature contrasts ensure aromatic clarity and stability during long ripening.

Vinification: Manual harvest at the end of August (Chardonnay) and beginning of September (Macabeo); parcel selection based on freshness and aging potential; gentle pressing at low temperature; natural cold sedimentation; temperature-controlled fermentation; part of the base wine briefly aged in wood; final blending after sensory evaluation; tirage in winter; 36 months of bottle aging on the lees.

Alcohol content: Not specified (typically approx. 11.5–12% vol.)

Tasting note: Pale yellow with fine, integrated perlage. The nose offers complex notes of pastry and yeast, along with fresh white fruit, creamy hints, and light vanilla tones. On the palate, it is soft, round, and elegant with harmonious mousse, a creamy texture, and a long, smooth finish.

Food pairing suggestion: Excellent with scallops, lobster, mild creamy dishes, tempura, grilled fish and elegant appetizers; ideal for special occasions.
