The vineyard today has an average age of forty years and produces full, vigorous bunches. Because the vines have deep roots in the chalky subsoil, they can easily absorb moisture. This is crucial, as summers can be very hot and long. Fortunately, the cool wind and nighttime temperatures also contribute to a smooth growing season. When the grapes have reached perfect ripeness, they are harvested in the early morning. They are pressed immediately, and the blend is then assembled by the winemaker, leaving the rest to the Palau family.
Once the rosé is ready, it is bottled with yeast and sugar. This method is called the "methode traditionnelle" (traditional method), essentially the same as for French Champagne. It develops its bubbles in the bottle for ten to twelve months and then rests wonderfully in the Palau cellars. After this period, the Cava is a reality, and we can enjoy the fine quality of the Palau family.
For this price, this is a truly remarkable glass; what softness and suppleness! This Cava Palau Rosé has beautiful, soft bubbles, thanks in part to the "mèthèque traditionelle" (traditional method). Truly exceptional. The aroma offers a broad bouquet of red fruit, including strawberries, raspberries, and red currants. The palate boasts a wide palette of red fruit and very soft bubbles! What a classy rosé cava this from Palau!
