WINE MAKING PROCESS
Pere Olivella Galimany Cava Brut Nature is produced using the traditional method, involving secondary fermentation in the bottle. The grapes, Macabeo, Xarel-lo, and Parellada, are hand-harvested from hillside vineyards. Following primary fermentation, the wine undergoes a lengthy aging process on its lees for 18-24 months. The winery employs rational viticulture, aims to reduce its environmental impact, and works towards minimizing sulfite usage.
