| Description: | Tasting notes This is one of the finest Champagne imitations, or Cavas, I have tasted from Spain. Crisp notes of apple skins, brioche, baking spices and pears emerge from this fragrant, medium-bodied sparkler. It possesses tiny, uniformed bubbles, impressive purity and a heady finish. Technical notes 85% Chardonnay, 15% Parellada. Organically grown vines planted from 1975 - 1993. Tended in clay, limestone and sand soil at 252 m (827 ft) elevation. This is a vegan wine. Each grape variety is harvested, crushed and fermented separately in stainless steel tanks at low temperature, tirage and second fermentation in the bottle typical of the traditional method for sparkling wine for a minimum of 18 months and often longer, depending on vintage. Then, deguelle (disgorgement) followed by dosage. The wine is aged for a minimum of 18 months and often longer, depending on vintage, on its lees. Other text Caves Naveran, a premium line of estate-bottled Cavas, was founded in 1985 by Swiss born Michel Gilleron Parellada. The 272 acre property is located in the Alt Penedes sub-region in the town of Torrelavit. The higher elevation encourages good skin pigmentation, balanced aromatics, acidity and polished tannins. The vines are planted on steep slopes where the topsoil is composed of limestone and sand with a subsoil of clay. All Naveran Cavas are made according to the Methode Champenoise in which a secondary fermentation takes place in bottle. Food pairing Cavas are extremely versatile, not only as an apéritif before the meal or to accompany dessert afterwards, but also to enjoy during the meal. Oysters, raw tuna and sushi are a good match, and Naveran Dama's fresh acidity will compliment fruit desserts well, especially peaches and sliced oranges. |
