Description

Product description for Alta Alella AUS Bruant Brut Nature, 2022 (bio)

Info

The Pet-Nat is made from Pansa Blanca (Xarel-lo). The vines are located directly on the Mediterranean Sea on sandy granite soils at an altitude of 100–220 m. Using the ancestral method, the must begins to ferment and completes this process in the bottles. 15–24 months of aging on the lees follow.

Color

Bright, light straw yellow, tinged with golden reflections. The perlage is restrained, yet lively and detailed.

Nose

The nose opens with a complex tension of yeast, yellow fruit, pastry, and nuttiness. It smells of yeast pastry, butterscotch, and shortcrust pastry, flanked by apricot, mirabelle plum, peach, and khaki. Spicy accents such as cinnamon, white pepper, and a hint of plum round out the fruit. Nutty notes of almonds, cashews, and dried Mediterranean herbs—sage, thyme, oregano—add depth. The overall impression is chalky to chalky, finely and precisely structured. Compared to other Cavas, this example appears less citrusy, but more yellow fruity, with more volume and a broader pear-based profile. Despite its traditional style, its aromas are distinctive: grilled pineapple, unripe green mango, mirabelle plum—everything remains bright, transparent, and elegant.

Palate

The carbon dioxide packs a powerful punch, bringing freshness and structure. The minerality is precise and chalky, yet not loud—rather present, distinctive, and stylishly understated. The wine remains lean, racy, and stimulating—carried by a balanced tension between yellow fruit, acidity, and minerality. In the background, light nutty notes—almonds, cherry stones, hazelnuts—as well as delicate hints of linden and apple blossoms emerge. The Mediterranean spice remains subtle and structurally effective. Finesse and broad accessibility are clear strengths of this sparkling wine. It displays a wealth of character, yet remains charming, clear, and stimulating.
