Brut 'BB' El Jardì dels Sentits 2019

'BB' Brut is a creamy and graceful Catalan sparkling wine produced by the family-run winery El Jardì dels Sentits. This artisanal wine-growing reality, which is just 40 kilometres from Barcelona, follows the principles of organic and biodynamic farming, respecting tradition while using the most modern technologies. The name of the winery "El Jardì dels Sentits" literally means "the garden of the senses", while the acronym "BB", appellative of this label, stands for "Baby Bubbles", in reference to its subtle character with contained alcohol content.

El Jardì dels Sentits 'BB' Brut is made from only Xarelo grapes, grown on vines that are 55 or 70 years old and rest on mainly calcareous soils, rich in clay and magnesium. In the field they adopt the practices of organic and biodynamic agriculture. After the harvest and the transfer of the grapes to the cellar, the classic white vinification is followed by the fermentation in the bottle according to the Ancestral Method, that is to say using only the natural sugars of the must for the production of carbon dioxide. After a short period of aging on the lees, the sparkling wine is finally degorged and dosed Brut.

The Spanish Ancestral Method 'BB' Brut from the El Jardì dels Sentits winery has a golden yellow hue with a lively foam. The nose expresses hints of citrus and bread crust accompanied by vanilla sensations of small pastry. The taste is fresh and lively, with a silky effervescence and a citrus progression coherent with the olfactory profile. It is an easy and carefree homemade sparkling wine to drink, perfect alone as an aperitif or to accompany various appetizers, fish tartare or fresh cheeses.
