Jaume Cava
Description: | Winemaker Notes\r\n\r\n\r\nThis fine Spanish sparkling wine is made using the Traditional Method, in which the secondary fermentation producing a sparkling wine's bubbles occurs in the bottle. Its fresh, toasty nose, beautiful citrus, green apple and mineral flavors, supple, lively mouth-feel, and clean, crisp finish make it the ultimate celebratory wine. Enjoy it on its own and with caviar, sushi, seafood, fried foods and Asian dishes\r\nVarietal Blend: 50% Macabeo, 35% Parellada, 15% Xarel-lo\r\nAbout Jaume Serra\r\nJaume Serra is situated at the top of a slope that gently descends towards the Mediterranean Sea in Vilanova I La Geltru (Barcelona). Its origins went back to 1647, a year in which it was constructed a place called \u201cEl Padruell\u201d, a walled farm that since Xvii century it was used for protection to an old *masia-fortaleza that, as the legend says it use to have a passage that connected with the village.\r\nIn 1943 Don Jaume Serra G\u00fcel established his company in Alella and he put his name to it. In 1956 rato family bought \u201cEl padruell\u201d farm, and in 1975 he purchased the winery to Don Jaume Serra G\u00fcell. In 1984 for lack of enough vineyards in Alella, it decided to move the winery to Vilanova I La Geltru and it began the construction of the new winery and the planting of the vineyards, which is opened in 1986.\r\nIn 1997 Garcia Carrion family bought the winery Jaume Serra.\r\nThe Current winery is surrounded by a plot of lands of 125 hectares of vineyards with the varieties Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, Tempranillo y Chardonnay.\r\nThe Fermentation installations have an elaboration capacity of 5 million of kilos of grapes, with most modern systems of elaboration and aged, and a capacity of 20 million of bottles per year. Nowadays it has 3,500 American and French oak barrels to obtain wines with ageing, like the Crianzas, Reservas and Gran Reserva of high quality. |
