This Cava Reserva Brut is made only from the best harvests with free-run juice from chardonnay grapes.
Juvé y Camps has been a family run company for three generations and has garnered an international reputation. Over two hundred years ago, Joan Juvé Mir, a bold and enterprising vine grower with ideas way ahead of his time, laid the foundations of what would become the family firm.
He began the task which was carried on by his son, Antoni Juvé Escaiola, who, amongst other challenges, had to confront the effects of the terrible phylloxera plague. Advocating replanting, with other leading figures of the Penedes, he led a drive to restore the vineyards and to rebuild the wine production of the region.
A man respected and loved by his contemporaries, his example encouraged his son, Joan Juvé Baqués, to build the family's first winery. He married Teresa Camps Farré, an exceptional woman and an enthusiastic supporter who inspired her husband to launch, in 1921, the first sparkling wine under the "Juvé" brand. It was made in the underground cellars beneath the family home in San Sadurní d'Anoia.
Milesimé is a Gran Reserva Brut, from the "wort flower" of the Chardonnay variety grapes in the Espiells vineyard.
Milesimé has a beautiful golden colour, with a fruity smooth flavour. On average, it is nurtured for 42 months in its bottle.

Tasting Notes
This cava is a beautiful golden colour with a superb mousse. The numerous streams, formed by its very fine bubbles, rise up regularly to maintain an abundant and lasting crown. The aroma is complex, elegant and intense. Almost immediately evokes the flavours of fleshy fruit (peach and melon) and lactic notes. Gradually, its aroma develops, gaining intensity and, above all, complexity. In it we can distinguish notes of honey, grapefruit and toast. It is exuberant on the palate. Its intense and friendly effervescence fills the mouth with a magnificent creaminess. With a remarkable unctuousness, its texture in the mouth is both strong and fresh. This splendid cava has a long-lasting aromatic finish.
