Recaredo Serral del Vell

Vinification, winemaking and ageing are carried out entirely in Recaredo. Secondary fermentation and bottle ageing are done exclusively with natural cork stoppers. Cork is sustainable, recyclable and ideal for retaining the original character of a long-aged cava. Disgorging (the uncorking process) is done by hand without freezing the neck of the bottle, a technique based on skilled craftsmanship and respect for the environment. Grapes harvested from Recaredo’s Serral del Vell Estate, which stands on a small plateau (serral) carved out of the Bitlles Valley Highlands on a mainly calcareous terrain. No chemical herbicides or insecticides are used. Only natural organic fertiliser. Harvesting is done completely by hand to maintain the properties of the grapes used for a long-aged wine.
