While Champagne is produced in France and Franciacorta in Italy, Spain also has its own sparkling wine: Cava. Just like Champagne, Cava undergoes a special second fermentation. There are also strict rules regarding the process of producing Cava. The grapes for Mont Marcal Brut Reserva Cava are grown in the most beautiful locations in the Penedes region. Mont Marcal Brut Reserva Cava uses Macabeo, Xarel.lo, Chardonnay, and Parellada grapes, all fermented separately. The second fermentation in the bottle takes place in the enormous cellars of Mont Marcal and takes at least 15 months.
