The wine
The Lacrima Baccus Summum Brut Nature is a Cava from the DO Cava produced by the Lácrima Baccus winery. The cuvée is made from Pinot Noir and Xarel·lo. Xarel·lo is one of the traditional grape varieties used in Cava and brings freshness and structure. Pinot Noir gives the wine more body. The Cava matures on its lees in the bottle for 24 months. As a Brut Nature, it is bottled without dosage, meaning no sugar is added after disgorging. This allows the fruit and yeast aromas to come through unadulterated. With an alcohol content of 12 % Vol., it is ideal as an aperitif and as an accompaniment to many dishes.
