Alta Alella, Mirgin Cava Reserva Rose Brut Nature, 2020
is backordered and will ship as soon as it is back in stock.
Alta Alella is one of the most exciting producers in Spain’s Cava scene, crafting organic, terroir-driven sparkling wines just outside Barcelona. Mirgin Gran Reserva Rosé Brut Nature is a single-vintage expression of Cava at its most elegant, made from Mataró (the local name for Mourvèdre) and aged for over 30 months on the lees. The 2020 vintage, shaped by Mediterranean breezes and the estate’s granitic soils, delivers a rosé that is both fresh and complex, without a trace of residual sugar.
Delicate wild strawberry and pomegranate notes are lifted by citrus zest and a subtle, toasted almond character from extended aging. The fine, persistent bubbles add texture, while crisp acidity keeps everything bright and refreshing. Compared to sweeter or fruitier rosé sparklers, Mirgin leans into structure and minerality, making it a sophisticated choice for those who love Champagne-style elegance with a Catalan twist.
Perfect for aperitivo hour but just as at home with seafood paella, jamón Ibérico, or creamy cheeses, this is a Cava that punches well above its category. Enjoy now for its precision and vibrancy, or let it develop even more depth over the next few years.
