Cava Tresor Anniversary Gran Reserva Brut DO - Pere Ventura

Radiant, bright straw yellow with a fine, persistent perlage distinguishes the Cava Tresor Anniversary Gran Reserva Brut DO - Pere Ventura in the glass. Delicate reflections of pale gold underscore its elegant appearance and promise exquisite enjoyment for any occasion. As soon as it is poured, an aromatic fragrance rises that leaves a lasting impression.

On the nose, this Cava unfolds a multilayered composition of ripe lemon, juicy lime and a hint of grapefruit. The fragrance of white blossoms joins in, reminiscent of orange blossom and delicate acacia. Ripe peach and yellow stone fruit add warmth and fullness. Fine toast aromas emerge clearly, recalling freshly baked brioche, roasted nuts and a touch of vanilla. This balance of freshness and toasted notes gives the bouquet depth and tension.

On the palate, the Cava displays a precise, lively structure. The perlage is fine and creamy, carrying the aromas elegantly across the tongue and creating a vibrant mouthfeel. The acidity is clear, taut and refreshing, while remaining perfectly integrated. Juicy citrus fruit dominates the front of the palate, followed by peach, ripe pear and a hint of mirabelle plum. With increasing exposure to air, delicate brioche and toast notes unfold, accompanied by a touch of almonds and roasted hazelnut.

The sparkling wine shows medium body with impressive length. Its structure is silky and dense without losing finesse. The aromas remain present well into the finish, leaving notes of citrus zest, fine yeast cake and subtle mineral nuances. The style is clearly elegant and delicately dry, displaying the typical signature of high-quality Gran Reserva Cavas.

The cuvée of Macabeo, Parellada and Xarel·lo carries the tradition of Catalonia within it. Each grape variety contributes its own character:

• Macabeo: fresh citrus fruit, floral accents, delicate spice
• Parellada: elegance, finesse, fragrant lightness
• Xarel·lo: structure, density, mineral foundation

Together, they create a complex, multifaceted Cava that authentically reflects the terroir of Catalonia. Its origin in the D.O. Cava, more precisely in the traditional area around Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, decisively shapes its style. A Mediterranean climate, abundant sunshine and cooler nights form grapes with intense aromas and expressive freshness.

Production of Cava Tresor Anniversary Gran Reserva Brut DO - Pere Ventura

The grapes for this Gran Reserva come from carefully selected sites in Catalonia. The region’s Mediterranean climate brings sunny days, mild winters and sufficient temperature differences between day and night. This combination promotes concentrated aromas and lively freshness. The vines take root in calcareous and partly clay-rich soils, which provide minerality and structure.

The grapes are harvested with careful selection. Only ripe, aromatically concentrated grapes reach the winery. There, they undergo gentle pressing to obtain only the finest must. Each grape variety is processed separately so that its individual character can develop to the fullest.

The base wines ferment at controlled temperatures in stainless steel tanks, allowing their fruit and finesse to remain unaltered. This is followed by traditional bottle fermentation, the characteristic method used for high-quality Cavas. The yeast and base wine are combined in the bottle, where the second fermentation takes place and the fine perlage develops.

Maturation sur lie for 43 months forms the centerpiece of this Gran Reserva. During this extended period of ageing on the lees, complex aromas of brioche, toast and nutty nuances develop. At the same time, the Cava gains creaminess and depth. The bubbles later appear particularly fine and elegant, while the mouthfeel is soft yet full of tension.

After riddling and disgorgement, the Cava receives its final dosage in the Brut style. This carefully balanced interplay of sweetness and freshness accentuates the citrus fruit, stone fruit and fine toasted notes without obscuring their clarity. The Pere Ventura house style stands for precision, purity and fidelity to the terroir. Modern cellar craftsmanship meets a deep understanding of classic Cava tradition.

The modern bottle design, with its elegant sparkling-wine bottle, underscores the festive character of this Gran Reserva and stylishly complements elegant occasions. Each bottle leaves the winery only when maturity, finesse and pressure are in perfect harmony.
