Mont-Ferrant Carme Ruscalleda CR20 Cava 2006

Founded by Catalan nobleman August Vilaret and located just north of Barcelona in Spain’s Catalonia region, home to Cava production, Mont-Ferrant was founded in 1865 and is verifiably Spain’s oldest continuously operating Cava producer. All of Mont-Ferrant’s bottlings are crafted utilizing true methode champenoise technique, spending a minimum of 15 months in bottle, and some as long as three years before disgorgement, the only Cava producer with such a rigorous and costly commitment to artisanal quality Cava bottling. The wines are crafted from estate grown hand harvested varietals, including traditional Cava cultivars Macabeu, Xarel-lo, and Parellada, as well as traditional champagne varietals Pinot Noir & Chardonnay.
