Cava Recaredo Terrers Brut Nature GR 75cl 2019

58% Xarel.lo, 32% Macabeo, 10% Monastrell.

Goed op dronk, maar kan zich tenminste tot 2025 nog verder ontwikkelen

The Wine Advocate (about 2015):

"The 2015 Terrers is different blend than in the past and this year is composed of 58% Xarello, 32% Macabeo and 10% Monastrell, a red grape that behaves very well in warm vintages (like 2015), keeping acidity and providing an extra degree of freshness. The red grapes were fermented like whites (without skins), and because they liked what it added to the wine, they repeated it in 2016 but not in 2017 and 2018. This is fresh, mineral and austere and very remarkable for the style of the vintage. Like the rest of the range, it's bone-dry and very long and tasty. It feels more like a wine from a cool vintage than a warm one. Very complete."

Recaredo has also left the Cava appellation along with the rest of the Corpinnat group. They are working to produce wines with the second fermentation in bottle without adding cane sugar, using must from their own vines and with indigenous yeasts.
