✨ Tekniske specifikationer
Bodegas Faustino, globally recognized for its iconic portrait-clad Rioja bottles, also applies its centuries-old winemaking expertise to the sparkling world with this Brut Cava Reserva. Crafted in the traditional method within the qualified municipality of Oyón in Rioja—one of the select zones outside Catalonia authorized to produce DO Cava—this wine is typically a vibrant blend of Macabeo (Viura) and Chardonnay. The grapes benefit from the high-altitude, clay-limestone soils of Rioja Alavesa, which impart a crisp acidity and elegant minerality. After secondary fermentation in the bottle, the wine undergoes extended lees aging to develop its characteristic fine bubbles, creamy texture, and complex aromas of white flowers, green apple, and subtle toasted brioche.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
Bodegas Faustino blev grundlagt i 1861 af Eleuterio Martínez Arzok og er en ikonisk, familieejet vingård beliggende i Oyón i hjertet af Spaniens prestigefyldte Rioja Alavesa-region. Vingården ledes i dag af fjerde generation af Martínez Zabala-familien og råder over mere end 650 hektar førsteklasses vinmarker i Rioja, hvor traditionel vindyrkning går hånd i hånd med omhyggelig fadlagring. Huset er verdenskendt for sine karakteristiske flasker i matteret glas og de historiske etiketter med Rembrandt-portrætter. De hyldes for deres klassiske og elegante vine – frem for alt flagskibet Faustino I Gran Reserva, flankeret af anmelderroste Reserva-vine, udtryksfulde Crianzaer og forfriskende Cava fremstillet efter den traditionelle metode.
