Overview:

Discover the exquisite blend of tradition and contemporary tastes with Caballo Oscuro Cava Brut Nature. Originating from the Penedès region of Spain, this Cava offers a distinct character, crafted through traditional bottle fermentation while seamlessly aligning with modern palates.

The Craftsmanship of Cava:

Caballo Oscuro Cava is meticulously crafted using three distinct grape varieties: Macabeo, Xarel·lo, and Parellada.

• Macabeo: Lends a crisp, acidic framework.
• Xarel·lo: Contributes body and fullness.
• Parellada: Infuses a captivating fruit personality.

These carefully chosen grapes are harmoniously blended to undergo a secondary fermentation in the bottle, aging for a minimum of 9 months. Over time, the decomposing yeasts, or "lees", enrich the wine with nuanced flavors.

Winemaking Process:

• Harvest: The grapes are delicately handpicked and transported in small crates to the winery.
• Fermentation: Each grape variety is fermented at 16-18ºC to create the base wine. The blend is then crafted, complemented with yeast and sugar, and bottled with a crown cap.
• Aging: The second fermentation unfolds in an underground cellar, followed by 12 months of aging on the lees.
• Finishing: The bottles are degorged to remove yeasts, and topped up with the same wine without any additional sugar.

Embark on a journey to the heart of Penedès, where tradition meets contemporary refinement with our Caballo Oscuro Cava Brut Rosé. Born from the age-old ‘Champán’ methods revered throughout Spain, this exquisite Cava embodies a distinct character that has evolved to captivate the modern connoisseur while honoring the artisanal craft of bottle fermentation.

The Art of Fermentation: Following initial fermentation of the 100% Pinot Noir grapes. Yeast is added with a touch of sugar, and then it embarks on its transformative second fermentation within the bottle. Nestled in subterranean cellars for over 15 months, each bottle matures gracefully on the lees, developing an intricate spectrum of flavors as the yeast imparts a creamy texture and layers of nuanced aromas over time.

Tasting Notes: Clad in a radiant pink hue kissed with an understated tile brown—a nod to its dignified maturation—Caballo Oscuro Cava Brut Rosé greets the senses with ripe berries and a delicate trace of strawberry jam. The passage of time weaves in whispers of yeast and freshly-baked bread, culminating in a taste reminiscent of a sumptuous fruit pie, exquisitely balancing sweetness with a lively acidity.
