Loxarel Reserva Familiar Organic Cava | Penedes, Spain
Superb, in both taste and presentation, this reserve vintage sparking is made from Xarel-lo, Macabeu and Chardonnay and aged for at least 48 months.
Each label is hand signed and numbered by winemaker Josep Mitjans.
Masia Can Mayol is one of a number of producers who no longer apply the description Cava to their sparkling wines.
They are now labelled as ‘Methode Traditionnelle’ and ‘DO Penedès’; a decision based on the desire to guarantee quality. Cava is a ‘production’ DO administered in Madrid, not a regional one.
