The 2005 Reserva Brut is a blend of 48% Macabeo,
27% Parellada, and 25% Xarel-lo sourced from
vines over 25 years of age. Light gold-colored, it
offers up an alluring nose of yeast, wheat thins,
biscuit, green apple, and mineral notes. Dry, crisp,
and refreshing on the palate, it has excellent grip,
concentration, and depth leading to a lengthy, pure
finish. Drink it over the next three years.
All of the Agusti Torello Mata Cavas are vintage
dated and have the disgorgement date on the back
label.
