General Information
Ars Collecta Paraje El Tros Nou 2010 is a magnificent brut gran reserva cava that stands out for its uniqueness, offering new organoleptic nuances to the traditional expression of cavas made with pinot noir. El Tros Nou is a vineyard distinguished as a "Paraje Calificado" by the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Food, and Environment, where 100% pinot noir grapes are harvested manually at night to create this fantastic and complex artisanal cava.
Once in the winery, these high-quality grapes are selected, cooled, and pressed to prevent the must from being stained by the skins, thus obtaining a Blanc de Noirs. After the fermentation process, this jewel of the Catalan winery ages for 90 months at a constant temperature of 14ºC within the thick walls of what was once Codorníu's first cava cellar.
Ars Collecta (the art of collection) is the exclusive proposal of the Codorníu group, led by its winemaker Bruno Colomer. This project stands out for creating exceptional cavas from some of the most hidden estates within the denomination, which, in turn, hold remarkable peculiarities. These are reflected in every sip of these exclusive sparkling wines under the D.O. Cava.
With a limited production of only 1,200 bottles, this elegant and vibrant cava can be enjoyed with a wide range of dishes, such as seafood, fish with delicate sauces, all kinds of rice dishes, lightly seasoned meats, and smoked foods.
