Llopart Ex Vite Brut 2014

Made from the Xarel·lo (60%) and Macabeo (40%) varieties, grown in vineyards aged over 60 years old, Llopart Ex Vite Brut has a very limited production run of 5,300 bottles a year. Its "coupage" is carried out with reserve wines matured in oak barrels and it spends a minimum of 84 months ageing in bottle. The result is a bright straw-gold coloured Cava, with a very fine mousse and beads slowly released to form a crown. It exudes a potent and elegant aroma that reveals dried fruits and nuts, along with toasty, balsamic and smoky notes. It shows fullness on the palate and is very flavoursome, with a smooth and lingering aftertaste.
