Segura Viudas Reserva Brut Cava
Fruitiness, freshness and complexity are the three principal defining characteristics of Segura Viudas Brut Reserva.
It is a blend of 50% Macabeo, 30% Xarel·lo, 20% Parellada sourced from a diversity of vineyards using the special attributes of each area to create a balanced and complex Cava with a dosage of 9g/l.
After pressing of whole grapes to retain their identity and avoid oxidation, the complexity is enhanced with Segura Viudas’s specific winemaking techniques.
The first and second fermentations are carried out using selected yeast strains. The blend is composed from 8 different cuvees, of which four, once the primary fermentation is complete, age on their lees, in tank, for 3 months. There follows a minimum of 15 months bottle ageing in contact with the lees, in conditions of total darkness and calm, 20 metres below ground and at a constant, natural temperature of between 14 and 16ºC.
