TASTING NOTES
Kripta has a straw colour with golden hues. It is slow-evolving, fine with persistent bubbles. Clean and bright. Sweet aroma with creamy notes of ripe fruit and vanilla; slightly toasted with a balmy smoked background and good complexity. Fine and elegant first taste, with perfectly integrated bubbles. Pleasant development with a silky froth against a vanilla, ripe fruit, toasted and truffle background. Very long and complex aftertaste where vanilla stands out on a toasted and butter background resulting from the long ageing process. Minimum ageing 48 months with a cork. Limited production with numbered bottles. Kripta comes with printed card showing the date of desgorgement on each label of our bottles. It shows the date when the bottle has finished its aging process. It is Agusti Torello Mata's guarantee and commitment to quality.
FOOD PAIRING
Ideal with any type of food due to its structure and ageing: caviar, smoked food, fish, meat, foie-gras and cured cheese.
Serve at 7 to 8°C 11.5% ABV / 750ml / Contains Sulphites

APART FFOM THE WONDERFULLY DESIGNED BOTTLE ,THIS CAVA IS DEFINATELY NOT FIOR MIXING WITH ORANGE JUICE ! IT IS A WONDERFULLY MATURE SPARKLING WINE ,BONE DRY WITH A FINO SHERRY LIKE AROMA THAT IS AS GOOD AS ANY CHAMPAGNE.EXCELLENT.
Agusti Torello Mata was born into a dynasty of tailors and musicians, but went into the world of cava at a very young age, a world that turned into his profession and his passion. Pioneering, passionate and tireless, he created in 1953 the first wine analysis laboratory in the industry, managed important wineries in the Penedes region and set up his own cava winery in 1959. Due to his enthusiasm and vision of the viticulture industry, he soon became a reference point in the internationalization of cava. It is in this spirit that he fostered the creation of the Cava Guild, which acknowledged his work by appointing him President of Honour some years ago.
