The prestigious wine journalist Ramon Francàs Martorell has presented the collectible cava Alta Alella 10 · Gran Reserva as wine of the week in the Spanish daily newspaper La Vanguardia. He also shares recommendations for food and wine pairing with references to the wine tourism route ‘D.O. Alella’.
We highlight (original text in Spanish):
“It is a golden, creamy sparkling wine with notes of brioche, ripe stone fruit, nuts and a touch of honey. The carbonic, with tiny bubbles, is very well integrated. It exhibits volume, roundness, salinity, good acidity and great complexity. Aged for 129 months. Only half a thousand bottles are available.”
Some pairing recommendations are fish soup from Maresme region, rice with prawn carpaccio or beef stew with vegetables.
