AT Roca Esparter Brut Nature is a boutique sparkling wine and a true benchmark of Agustí Torelló Roca's winemaking philosophy. Certified under the prestigious Clàssic Penedès designation, this single-plot sparkling wine comes from "Vinya de l'Esparter," a vineyard planted exclusively with old-vine Macabeu over marly and limestone soils. Cultivated under organic and biodynamic standards, the base wine partially ferments in French oak barrels before undergoing an extensive minimum aging of 40 months on the lees. The result is an estate Brut Nature: vertical, deep, and featuring superb gastronomic complexity.
In the glass, it displays a beautiful straw golden yellow color, bright and crystal clear, enhanced by an extremely fine and persistent bubble stream that creates an elegant crown. On the nose, it unfolds a mature and captivating aromatic symphony where white stone fruit, like baked apple and ripe pears, seamlessly blends with hints of fine brioche, toasted nuts, and a subtle buttery touch from the fine oak. Shortly after, a distinctive mineral and saline character emerges, reflecting its unique soil of origin. On the palate, it seduces from the very first sip with an impressive entry and a rich, creamy texture; the carbonation is flawlessly integrated, melting like a velvety caress. The mid-palate is remarkably fresh, driven by a crisp and sharp acidity that sustains its grand structure and leads into a clean, dry, mineral, and memorably long finish.
The tyrosine crystals and savory power of a long-aged cheese find a perfect mirror in Esparter's extended aging. The wine's vertical acidity beautifully cleanses the palate while enhancing the nutty notes of both elements.
The rich texture of the bechamel and roasted meat benefits immensely from the fine bubbles of this Clàssic Penedès. The subtle oak and brioche undertones of the sparkling wine beautifully elevate the truffle's earthiness.
A magnificent textured contrast: the volume and rich mouthfeel of this old-vine Macabeu Brut Nature easily embraces the red meat, while its absolute dryness cuts through the mustard's spiciness.
