WINE MAKING PROCESS
Cava Rovellats Gran Reserva Brut Nature is produced using the traditional method, where the second fermentation takes place in the bottle. The grapes are hand-harvested from Rovellats' own certified organic vineyards. Following primary fermentation, the wine undergoes an extended aging period of at least 60 months on its lees. This prolonged contact with the yeast contributes to the development of complexity, fine bubbles, and a smooth texture. The wine is then disgorged and bottled with a Brut Nature dosage, indicating minimal to no added sugar.
