Fruitiness, freshness and complexity are the three defining characteristics of our Segura Viudas Brut Reserva. The fruit and freshness come from the meticulous care with which we handle our grapes. The complexity comes from a very special technique, which involves autolysis of the yeast cells in the base wine for 3 months before bottling, and a second autolysis of the yeast cells for a minimum of 15 months ageing in bottle. An ideal Cava to start a meal. It also pairs well with preserved seafood, (clams, winkles, and anchovies), pasta dishes with seafood sprinkled with arbequina extra virgin olive oil or a warm quail salad. It is also perfectly at home with soft milk cheeses or mild Brie.

Pale straw to the eye, this wine has steady perlage and a nose of Granny Smith apple, apricot and saline. It washes across the palate with a pleasant tingle and Bartlett pear, guava, passion fruit, brioche and toasted hazelnut flavors that coalesce in a vivid finish.
