A creamy, floral nose leads to crisp, elegant and refreshing palate of berry fruit. A long and vibrant finish invites the next sip.

The vines of the Barbera, Plana and Viader plots have deep soil with a clay loam texture, which provides us with freshness and elegance. The Monestrell plot, situated on the terraces on Serral hill, marks the De Nit sparkling wine with its personality.

-40%% Xarel·lo: Harvested after the 2th of September. Goblet and Espalier-trained vines between 1974 and 1990.

-6% Monastrell: Harvested the 19 of September. Goblet-trained vines in 1974.

First fermentation in stainless steel vats at a controlled temperature, separating varieties and soil types, blending, second fermentation in the bottle and minimum ageing of 18 months with the lees in the bottles. Add the base wine expedition liqueur with Eco sugars. The disgorging date is indicated on the back label.

The very pale salmon/onion-skin colored 2020 De Nit is a blend of 44% Xarel.lo, 39% Macabeo, 12% Parellada and 5% Monastrell, which is closer to a white. It has energy, good ripeness and some natural concentration from the vintage, with weight and clout keeping the balance and freshness, and some very small bubbles after no less than 18 months in bottle with lees. All the wines are very expressive; they have bubbles that provide texture and lift the wine up. This is serious, dry but adjusted to different levels depending on the year, a bit more complex than the Blanc de Blancs. They produce a fair amount of this: 200,000 bottles and some other larger and smaller formats. Anticipated Maturity: 2022-2027
