Cava Trastocat: The Rebel Sparkling Wine of Alt Penedès

The Craft Essence of Carol Vallès

Cava Trastocat is one of the most distinctive and boldest creations from Carol Vallès, an estate family winery nestled in the heart of Alt Penedès. This sparkling wine breaks away from conventions, crafted meticulously under the traditional method following a philosophy of minimal intervention and deep respect for the land. Born from a rigorous selection of estate-grown grapes, Trastocat stands out for its absolute authenticity, presenting a flawless balance between the aromatic layers acquired during its long lees aging and the vibrant crispness of a Mediterranean terroir.

Narrative Tasting Note: An Elegant and Energetic Game of Bubbles

In the glass, Trastocat showcases a brilliant, pale yellow hue adorned with delicate golden highlights, driven by an energetic, steady stream of microscopic bubbles forming a persistent, fine mousse. On the nose, a seductive aromatic mosaic unfolds, bringing forward crisp white orchard fruits and baked apple notes that quickly blend with refined nuances of fresh brioche, toasted nuts, and a subtle undertone of undergrowth flowers. The palate delivers pure harmony and tension; the bubbles melt with a creamy, velvety texture that adds a superb mouthfeel, while a vibrant, crisp citrus acidity structures the core, leading to a long, mineral, and highly gastronomic finish.
