Amós Baneres and Alex Ruíz collaborate in Penedes to create affordable and classically more “approachable” natural wines. They aim and succeed in highlighting what is so unique about this terroir with its sandy loam, limestone, and calcareous soils strewn with fossilized oysters. Their bottlings are named after insects found at the different vineyard sites – Pregadeu, their Grower Cava, means Praying Mantis.
Method ancestral Xarello. Tight and crisp bubbles, and that extra lees contact provides a creamy richness that is lost in a lot of conventional cava. On the palate, bright lemon custard, brioche, and fresh squeezed grapefruit. Serve cold.
