More information about Cantosan Espumoso brut
Yllera produces this high quality sparkling wine from grapes 10-40 years old according to the tradionale method with the 2nd fermentation in the bottle and a subsequent aging period of at least 18 months on the lees. The riddling is done with giropallets and the degorgement just before the sale, so that the sparkling wine comes quite fresh to the market. It is straw yellow in color, showing aromas of green apples and hay with hints of citrus and toasted bread. The fine mousse and crisp freshness with delicate fruit, dry taste and balance make this Cantosan an excellent aperitif.
Located on the same plateau as Ribera del Duero, Rueda is the most promising and versatile white wine region in Spain. Here, the Verdejo grape is grown primarily, followed by Sauvignon blanc, with great success.
