Description
Mascara Cuvée “Antonio Mascaro” Gran Reserva NV is a premium sparkling wine made from a blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo, and Parellada grapes grown in the Penedès region of Spain. This Gran Reserva is aged for a minimum of 30 months on its lees, creating a complex and refined character.
On the palate, it offers a creamy mousse with a delicate and persistent bead, leading to a beautifully balanced mouthfeel. The aromas are of ripe fruit with hints of citrus and floral notes. The flavors of pear, apricot, and baked apple are complemented by a subtle toastiness from the extended ageing process.
The wine is named after the founder of the winery, Antonio Mascaro, who established the Mascara winery in 1946. This Cuvée is a tribute to his legacy and the winery's commitment to producing only the finest sparkling wines in the region. Perfect as an aperitif or paired with seafood, poultry, or creamy pasta dishes, Mascara Cuvée “Antonio Mascaro” Gran Reserva NV is a true expression of Spanish winemaking excellence.
