Collectible cava with a “grand vin” philosophy. The elegant passage of time – J.M. Pujol-Busquets

The Pujol-Busquets family has released to the market the new vintage 2012 of Alta Alella 10. This singular and long aged sparkling wine is the result of combining: Sauló soil from Can Genís Estate –a sandy granitic soil–, the exceptional and unique climate characteristics from Serra de Mar area, and many years of experience making high quality cavas.

Tasting note
Intense golden color, bright and with greenish hues. Very fine bubbles forming a persistent crown. On the nose, one can find candied fruit with aromas of pastry and toasted notes on the nose. Great complexity, fresh, tasty, unctuous, mineral and with a subtle bitterness on the palate. Elegant well-marked acidity and long, persistent aftertaste, with hints of nuts and toasted notes.

Vintage 2012
A vintage marked by the lack of rain during the growing season. The high temperatures during maturation led to a rapid ripening of all varieties, resulting in a very concentrated and extraordinarily healthy harvest. The rains in mid-September brought the ripening process to a halt, which resulted in a better maturation of the grapes.
