WINE MAKING PROCESS
The Sumarroca Gran Reserva Brut Nature 2021 is produced using the Traditional Method, involving secondary fermentation in the bottle. Each grape variety is vinified separately before blending. Following blending, the wine undergoes an extended aging period on its lees for a minimum of 36 months, with the 2021 vintage potentially aging for 40 months. This process is followed by disgorgement. Bodegues Sumarroca practices organic and sustainable farming across its estates, controlling the entire production process.
