'Blanc de Blanc' Espumoso 2020
$68.00 RRP
Raventós i Blanc is a small, family-owned concern, based on 90 hectares at Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, which has been in the family since 1659, and has been a wine-growing estate since 1497. Their 'Blanc de Blancs' is a blend of Xarel.lo, Macabeu and Parellada, the varieties are fermented separately then blended before second fermentation. Minimum lees aging is 18 months and dosage is kept to a minimum, keeping it extra brut in style.
Typical of the Raventos i Blanc house style, this is a supremely elegant and delicately
textured premium sparkler, featuring fresh apple and fine sand earthiness. Nestled
into the characteristic fine bead are twinkles of seaspray, white nectarine and green
pear; it’s deft, delicious and has lovely flavor and mouthfeel as well as crunch and
race. Outstanding wine for the price.
