A sparkling combination of the classic Spanish grapes - Xarel·lo, Macabeo, and Parellada - alongside portions of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay, this Cava is defined by its elegance and depth. On the nose expect evolved, tertiary notes of toasted brioche, roasted almonds, and subtle honey layered over refreshing backbone of dried lemon peel and green apple. The palate is intensely dry (Brut), yet perfectly balanced by the creamy richness derived from the long aging process. The mousse (bubbles) is exceptionally fine and persistent, leading to a long, clean finish. [#intro]A sparkling combination of traditional grapes, long ageing \u0026amp; 130 years of Cava-making experience...[\/intro]\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Roger Goulart","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":39281548001347,"sku":"A18GOULARTCAVA-1","price":16.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0106\/1539\/0266\/files\/JosepVALLSBT.jpg?v=1764010906"},{"product_id":"roger-goulart-coral-rose-cava","title":"Roger Goulart Coral Rosé Cava 2018\/22","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Roger Goulart Coral Vintage Rosé Cava is made from a blend of Garnacha (70%) and Pinot Noir (30%) grapes grown in the Penedés region of Spain.
