"A sparkling rose, the non-vintage Brut Rosat Cava is fashioned from the indigenous varietal called Trepat, blended with a touch of Pinot Noir. It is macerated on its skins for a few hours to achieve the desired color (relatively dark for a European rose), and then blended and bottled for a secondary fermentation to produce the bubbles. Strawberry, cherry and mulberry fruit notes intermixed with peppery, herb-like characteristics are found in this fresh, medium-bodied rose. It is best drunk over the next year." Wine Advocate
