Our Notes
Ramon Canals Reserva Numerada Cava 2018 is crafted using a blend of the three traditional grape varieties of the Penedès region: Xarel·lo, Macabeu, and Parellada. Following the initial alcoholic fermentation, the wine undergoes 24 months of aging on its lees before disgorgement. This extended aging process, combined with the secondary fermentation in the bottle, allows the wine to develop a complex array of aromas and flavors unique to sparkling wines that have aged for several years in the bottle.
Nose: Aromas of citrus fruits like lemon, tangerine, and orange intertwine with notes of orchard fruits, including green apples and pears. There are also hints of brioche and a subtle minerality. Palate: The wine is crisp and dry, featuring flavors of white peach, lime, and orange peel, complemented by a pleasant bready character. The bubbles are fine, and the mousse is consistent, leading to a refreshing, dry finish with vibrant acidity that harmonizes the flavors elegantly.
