About This Wine:
Pale yellow with green tones. Shiny and clear.
Powerful in the nose, clean. Ageing aromas.
Soft and well structured, long aftertaste and good balance of acidity and sugar contents.
Painous is unique in that it is a Cava-Joven style sparkling wine, meaning, the wine receives the minimum aging of 9 months. This allows crisp, fresh aromas and flavors to be expressed. It is delicious for aperitif.
Wine Making:
Occurs in 3 stages. Macabeo within the first fortnight of September, Xarello during the second fortnight in September and Parellada within the first fortnight of October.

It is decanted and fermented with controlled temperatures of 18ºC for 20 days until it fully develops the primary aromas of the grapes. Secondary fermentation: takes place in the bottle for 40 days at a temperature of 16ºC and final ageing for 20 months.Residual sugar: 7 gr. per litre.
