Tasting Note

Producer

The original Jaume Serra winery is located on “El Padruell” Estate, just by the Mediterranean coast, south from Barcelona. The winery dates back to 1647, and vineyards were planted all around progressively, until in 1986 when the named Jaume Serra winery was founded.

In 1997 the property was acquired by the Garcia Carrion family and joined a group of wineries in the most important wine regions of Spain. The Jaume Serra winery today is the most popular producer of cava in Spain and is the second largest exporter of Cava.

Winemaking

This fine Spanish sparkling wine is made using the Traditional Method, in which the secondary fermentation producing a sparkling wine’s bubbles occurs in the bottle. Spanish wine made this way is called Cava and uses the same method as Champagne in France. Jaume Serra Brut Nature is aged on its lees for 9 months in the bottle, adding a hint of toasty creaminess to the palate. 

Food pairing

This dry Cava can be enjoyed throughout a meal since it is very food friendly. It’s ideal as a dry aperitif and for sipping on its own
