Cava Pinord +&+ Brut Selección

Pinord is one of the most respected companies in the Penedès region thanks to a tradition that goes back more than 150 years. They have a huge range, but we carry the Cava +&+ series and the Lluna series. These are their high end wines.

The Cava +&+ Brut Selección has been chosen as the best Cava of Spain in the Wines of Spain Award (WS'22) program which consists of a jury from the wine producers, journalists, sommeliers and WSET and is led by Tim Atkins (see tab: Appendix). The Pinord +&+ Seleccion Brut Cava NV is a rich, yet floral 'traditional method' sparkling wine, made from the traditional Catalan grapes of Parellada, Xarel-Lo and Macabeo. It undergoes a prolonged aging of the lees to increase the intensity of the flavour. The three grape varieties are sorted and fermented separately. The fermentation process is controlled at low temperatures to achieve maximum fruit expression. The second fermentation takes place in the bottle for two years.

The Brut +&+ from Pinord has a pale straw yellow color in the glass. Wonderfully fresh with notes of peaches, grapefruit, baked bread, hazelnuts. Tertiary aromas of freshly baked bread are created by the second fermentation in the bottle, giving it its own character. The wine is extremely well balanced with beautiful fruit, dry (but not too), tasty acidity and a perfect perlage with refined bubbles. This is a great aperitif and delicious with low-fat cheese, fried river fish, ham, tapas and of course with sushi.
