Winemaker Notes
The Casteller Brut Cava opens with aromas of green apple and citrus. On the palate, it offers crisp, fresh flavors with hints of citrus-lime and a subtle touch of sweetness. The taste is refreshingly clean and vibrant, with a lively, zesty quality.
Wine Information
Meant to capture the essence of Catalan culture, Casteller Cava is a vibrant, zesty expression of Penedès’s traditional sparkling wine. The term "Casteller," meaning "Tower," pays homage to the age-old tradition of clans and villages competing to build the tallest human towers during holiday festivals. This practice, especially prominent in Camp de Tarragona, was first documented in the eighteenth century and was recognized by UNESCO in 2006 as an Intangible Heritage of Humanity due to its deep-rooted significance in Catalonia. This exquisite Cava, crafted by winemaker Maria Galup, honors this tradition and the rich history of Catalan sparkling wine. Aged for 12 months on the lees, Casteller is a beautifully textured, dry Cava, ideal as an aperitif for various celebrations—though we suggest abstaining from building human towers after enjoying a glass! Salut!
