Product Information
In this cava we find great aromatic potential on the nose, and it offers the primary aromas of the grape. When we taste Vilarnau Brut Reserva Orgánico, we want you to remember that it comes from a fruit (the grape) in this case the Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Parellada varieties

Other Information
The harvest produced lower yields than usual but very expressive, aromatic, and fresh grapes, which have
shown their character in these wines, with freshness, good body, balance, and a long finish. The Pinot Noir shows us fresh fruit, very good acidity, and silky tannins, delivering a delicate and elegant wine.

History
Our aim at Vilarnau is make the best cava with as little impact on our planet environment as possible. We make our living from the land, so looking after and nurturing it as best we can is in our DNA. The better we treat the land and our environment, the better the fruit the vines produce will be and the better our cava will be. As a winery we are pioneers in the region in how we calculate our carbon footprint for both the commercial side of the business and the product itself. Our aim is to reduce CO2 emissions and we approach this challenge in three different ways

Regional information
The vineyard is located in the area of d’Espiells, the highest, windiest part of the municipality of Sant Sadurni d’Anoia. Bordered to the south by the coastal Serrelada mountains and to the north by the Montserrat mountains, the vineyard enjoys an exceptional microclimate. The soil is alluvial and comprises three layers: the first consists of clay and silt, the second pebbles and loose stones and the third, the deepest, consists of fine sand that compacts down and is called “sauló”. Together, they produce a cava with very Mediterranean features.
Tasting notes
With this cava we are trying to achieve a balance between the three kinds of
aroma that tend to be present in cavas. Firstly, the primary aromas that come
from the fruit (the grapes) and provide the fruity and floral notes. Then there
are the secondary aromas that come from the second fermentation inside
the bottle and bring to mind the smells of bread and pastries baking. Lastly
are the tertiary aromas that develop as the cava ages and are reminiscent of
toast, nuts and honey.

Vinification details
The light stream of never ending bubbles in Vilarnau Brut Reserva are produced using the “traditional method”. This superior process for creating especially fine and delicate bubbles is also used by Champagne producers - just like Vilarnau, they know a few things about quality sparkling wine!
