Pere Ventura Cavas
Pere Ventura Cavas produces sparkling wines from Catalunya, Spain's premier cava region. The winery focuses on traditional méthode champenoise cava, drawing on the region's signature white varieties—Xarel-lo, Macabeo, and Parellada—alongside Chardonnay. The Gran Vintage Cava de Paraje Gran Reserva Brut, a blend of Xarel-lo, Parellada, and Macabeo, stands as the flagship expression. The Cava Maria del Mar Gran Reserva Brut adds Chardonnay to the base varieties, while the Cava Vintage Brut Gran Reserva pairs Chardonnay with Xarel-lo for a leaner profile. These bottlings have been assessed by Wine Enthusiast, Wine Spectator, and Decanter. The winery's approach emphasizes the mineral character and acidity native to Catalan terroir, expressed through extended aging in the traditional cava style.
