CAVAS UVESTE
HERITAGE
Our tradition goes back to our grandparents Pedro Ferrer and Dolores Sala, founders of Freixenet at the beginning of the XX Century. Three generations later we have continued with their heritage. Our commitment to organic producing has made us one of the leading producers in Spain.
GRAPES
We use Chardonnay as a key component of the coupage. This is unusual for Cava but this variety has adapted to the region remarkably well. The other main variety is Macabeo.
D.O. CAVA REQUENA
Requena is located in the highlands of Valencia at about 45 miles from the Mediterranean sea. Soils are mixture of clay, loam and limestone and the weather is dry with warm summers and cold winters. The altitude makes big temperature differences between day and night.
Ideal conditions for Organic production in a land with more than 2,000 years of tradition producing wine.
