Long-Aged Cava | Carol Vallès Masterpiece

Guillem Carol Gran Reserva: The Ultimate Expression of Signature Cava

The Legacy and Passion of a Family Cultivated in Bubbles

Guillem Carol Cava represents the qualitative pinnacle and absolute pride of the Carol Vallès estate. Created as a benchmark sparkling wine and crafted in strictly limited allocations, this Gran Reserva pays tribute to an enduring commitment to the land and the endless patience required by extensive aging. Sourced from a premier blend of the property's oldest vines, it undergoes an extraordinarily long cellaring on the lees. The result is a monumental sparkling wine: profound, mature, full-bodied, and boasting a wine-like dimension that captivates wine collectors and demanding connoisseurs alike.

Narrative Tasting Note: A Sparkling Wine of Enticing Color and Ancestral Riches

When poured, it catches the eye with a gorgeous deep golden-yellow color adorned with brilliant undertones, boasting microscopic bubbles that glide up with a stately grace to form a creamy, long-lasting crown. On the nose, it is a true display of mature, evolving aromas, where baked white fruit and dried apricots instantly unfold into noble autolytic layers: fresh brioche right out of the oven, toasted butter, nut creams (hazelnuts and almonds), and a subtly smoky, balsamic trace that speaks of its long years in the cellar. The palate is structural, broad, and wonderfully texturized. The entry is impactful yet velvety; the fully integrated bubbles melt like silk, delivering a sublime creaminess that wraps around the palate. It possesses a crisp, masterfully integrated acidity that supports its complete structure, extending the experience into a complex, mineral, and highly sumptuous finish.
