Tasting notes
Full bottle 1,606 g. Certified organic (Ecocert). A faint pinkish cast. Hints of strawberries and silky jamon. Apple mint and sweet chalk through a loose-wired gauze of white tannins. It feels as if there is a bit of a hole in the middle but I think it might be because the wine is so recently disgorged and so young. (TC)

The pale sparkling rosé 2022 De Nit is a blend of 49% Xarel.lo, 34% Macabeo, 12% Parellada and 5% Monastrell that refermented in bottle where it matured with the lees for 18 months. It has a subtle nose and feels very much like a white wine (which it mostly is) with just a copper tint and almost no red fruit aromas and very faint flavors. It has 12.09% alcohol with a pH of 3.01 and 5.9 grams of acidity balanced by 4.5 grams of sugar. It's clean and precise, and the sugar almost unnoticeable, giving it just an approachable touch but never sweet. It's Mediterranean, with notes of esparto grass, a more generous year. 225,000 bottles and other formats produced. It was disgorged in February 2024.
The 2022 Extra Brut de Nit composed of 50% Xarel·lo, 30% Macabeu, 15% Parellada and 5% Monastrell, sourced from Conca del Riu Anoia in Penedès. Light salmon-pink in hue, it offers enticing aromas of rose and cherry, with a hint of citrus. Dry, vibrant and delicate, the saline palate is enveloped by a soft mousse.
