Rosado Brut DO - Segura Viudas

The Brut Rosado DO from Segura Viudas reveals itself in a bright strawberry red with salmon reflections. A fine, opulent and persistent mousseux, which produces a beautiful crown, emerges.

Young aromas of strawberries, red currants and grenadine enrich the nose. This cava is refreshing on the palate, with an intense fruity taste full of cherries and a light, balanced acidity. The soft finish gives it a wonderfully open balance.

The Trepat grape provides the freshness of the fruit, the aroma and the finesse, while the Garnacha grape enhances the taste.

Vinification of Brut Rosado

The grapes are harvested by hand, destemmed, pressed and clarified. The resulting must is statically decanted for 24 hours to promote fruitiness and elegance. The first and second fermentation are then carried out, separated by grape juices, with selected yeast strains to give structure, complexity and a beautiful mousseux. Before bottling, various additions are added to this cava, so that a second alcoholic fermentation takes place in the bottle. This is followed by at least 12 months of ageing on the yeast, usually 18 to 20 months. After completion of storage, the dead yeast is first concentrated in the neck of the bottle during a shaking process lasting several weeks and then shock-frozen and degorated (removed). The bottle is then filled with an exclusively compiled dosage, corked, labelled and dispatched.
