The origin: Can Rius is our plot whose grapes we use for Milesimé Chardonnay because of its exceptional qualities. Its soils have a fine texture and a high content of clay and silt, and its southern orientation allows it to benefit from the caress of the sun most of the day. Located at an altitude of between 90 and 100 meters, it is in Gelida, on the eastern edge of Alt Penedès.
La anada: This year 2018 offered us a healthy and plethoric harvest, generous and beautifully balanced. The rains were abundant throughout the cycle of the vine and we had a lush spring and a happy ending for the Chardonnay harvest, which entered the cellar healthy and balanced, perfect for producing pleasant and juicy sparkling wines.
The wine: Milesimé Chardonnay is the result of selecting the best Can Rius grapes, full and ripe berries, expressive and lively, with enough structure for the wine to grow during bottle aging and gain complexity and nuance during its quiet rest in our cellars, which lasts up to 36 months.
Tasting: Its golden tones and full bubbles attract attention when served in the glass. It is harmonious, with a sweet melody of fruity and fleshy notes of melon and peach from the vineyard and citrus bursts of grapefruit. It expresses itself slowly and seductively with notes of honey and toast and light lactic notes that make up a rich aromatic palette. In the mouth, it is an explosion of flavors that fills the palate. Its texture is soft and silky, creamy, with a generous finish full of exquisite sensuality.
