"Family Reserve" from Juvé & Camps has passed a milestone with its acceptance into the category of "Extra Brut" Champagnes.
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.
"Family Reserve" is a "Brut Natural" Champagne with delicate fruity aromas.

Tasting Notes
"Reserva de la Familia" is a "Brut Natural" Cava with delicate fruity aromas, frank and elegant with a marked character of the harmonious set of our classic varietals.
On the palate it is dry, very fine, soft and silky, and at the same time complex and rich, typical of long ageing in the bottle.
As a whole, this Cava de Gran Reserve is full-bodied with a perfect balance and an exquisite finish.
