Essential Púrpura Cava Reserva Brut
Cava Reserva
Brut
12% Vol.
24 months of aging
Xarel·lo, macabeo and parellada ferment separately in stainless steel vats and, after malolactic fermentation, the assemblage is carried out seeking the balance and elegance that is the Juvé & Camps trademark. Only those wines that meet the criteria of freshness and primary character that we pursue in our house for these sparkling wines are part of Essential.
Once bottled, the second fermentation is carried out and aging begins in the tranquility and silence of our cavas, which will give rise to a fresh and bubbly sparkling wine.
Essential Púrpura spends at least 24 months in the bottle on its lees before it is ready to be enjoyed.

A tribute to the viticulture of Penedès
Essential Púrpura is a tribute to the viticulture of Penedès, where Juvé & Camps has been practicing it since 1796; it is an x-ray of their territories, a reflection of the honest communion between Juvé & Camps and the winegrowers with whom we have been working for a long time and who, like us, practice traditional and ecological viticulture. For this reason, making a sparkling wine that tastes of the most essential Penedès, with the three classic varieties of cava, is our way of giving them back the work they do throughout the year in the vineyard, and we do it the best we know how: with a wine that honestly transmit the nature of the Penedès.

Tasting notes
Colour: bright pale gold. The fine, persistent bubbles form a continuous bead that enhances its liveliness. Nose: appealing notes of fennel stand out, typical of a dry year that has intensified the expressiveness of Xarel·lo. Hints of white flowers and green apple follow, along with subtle bakery notes and light smoky nuances that add complexity and reveal its bottle ageing. Palate: fresh, with crisp and well-integrated bubbles that evolve into a creamy, seductive texture. The finish is long and harmonious, leaving a pleasant sensation that invites you to enjoy it glass after glass.
Pairing
It is a perfect sparkling wine for after work, an aperitif or an unexpected meeting, the point of extravagance of a day that seemed destined to be just another. Combine it with eggs benedictine at brunch time, spaghetti cacio e peppe, salmon tartar with dill, vegetable tempura. And don't forget good company.
