Young, fresh, fruity and dry with a light, natural sparkle (what the Spanish call a 'vino de aguja' - needle wine!) Blanc Pescador is incredibly popular as a wine for a casual drink - and for good reason. It has a superb fruity aroma and taste. And it's the perfect wine to add a few drops of Creme de Cassis to for a delicious and inexpensive Kir Royale. Served well chilled, this beautifully light wine with its soft yellow colour is ideal for appetizers, shellfish and in fact all types of seafood - hence the name Blanc Pescador, which translates as 'white fisherman'.

Fresh aromas and taste. White fruits. Excellent balance between alcohol and acidity. A pleasure! A very attractive straw colour and fresh aromas make this wine a classic Mediterranean white. The grape Xarel-lo is topped with small amounts of Perellada and Subirat Parent to round it up and results in a very pleasing wine.

The name 'Mas Comtal' translates as 'Court of the Count', referring to the family home of the Counts of Barcelona, to whom the present day farm estate belonged in the early 11th century. Here they have produced a very up to date white that's sharp and tasty with aromas of fresh herbs and tropical fruits. It's a very attractive straw colour with shades of light green. The aromas are clearly of tropical fruits and fresh garden herbs. The taste is very pleasant, with the Xarel-lo grape dominating and a slight nuttiness coming from the blend with Chardonnay. A really pleasant white!

This superior wine ranks among the top ten Cavas in Spain. As a Brut Nature, it is the driest of the cava styles so be sure you like your Cava this end of the scale. If you are a fan, then this will delight. It is a wine with an intense aroma, soft notes of white fruits and citrics and a very pleasant grapefruit finish. Something very much to celebrate in fact!

Cava is of course, the Spanish champagne. It's the product of three perfectly matched grapes: Xarel-lo, Macabeo and Chardonnay - and the mysterious influence of the moderate rainfall, intense sunshine and soft winds of the Penedes region. This Gramona is a really impressive cava with a distinctive aroma, cutting dryness, soft citrus taste with white flowers and hints of lovely white fruits. A beauty - and if you like a dry champagne, you'll love Cava, which many say is actually drier than the classic French wine.
