94 points, “Pure organic Xarel·lo, aged for 108 months. Intense aromas, a hint of white fruit. Multi-layered, fresh, deep; a benchmark.” – Decanter
This is only the fourth release of this super-premium Vintage Cava, and only the second to be classed as Paraje Calificado – denoting a superior Cava from a qualified location of exceptional quality.
La Capella is the flagship wine from Juvé & Camps, and it’s one for the pleasure seekers. Crafted from pure Xarel·lo grapes grown on old bush vines in the organic Capella vineyard, it was aged on the lees (the spent yeast that gives quality sparkling wine its nutty, yeasty and bready flavours) for nine years, which is surpassing Dom Pérignon and heading towards Krug Vintage territory. Only 4,000 bottles were made and managed to get our hands on just four of those. So, we’ll be limiting this spectacular wine to one per customer while stocks last.
Treat La Capella with the same reverence that you would Krug. This age-worthy wine is hauntingly beautiful with complex and elegant notes of buttered sourdough toast, lightly roasted almonds, Tarte Tatin, floral honey, brioche, smoke, dried fruit, honeysuckle and a pleasing touch of fennel bitterness. As the experts writing for Jancis Robinson’s Purple Pages note, “This is an aristocratic bottle of Cava from a very respected and admired house.”
The iconic Juvé & Camps is the number one name when it comes to Cava. Revered throughout Spain and the world beyond, this family-owned and 100% estate-based producer is at the vanguard of quality sparkling wine. They’ve been growing grapes for over two centuries and have always focused on quality and sustainability. Today, they farm over 270 hectares of organic-certified vines in Penedès, just outside Barcelona, and every single one of those vines is harvested by hand. They are pioneers of the Gran Reserva and generally age their vegan-friendly wines for much longer than the 30 months required by law. As their shield-like labels seem to suggest, Juvé & Camps is the Dom Pérignon of Spanish sparkling wine.
