Masia Salat - Organic Cava

Masia Salat Organic Cava is a bright and elegant sparkling wine from Catalonia, crafted from the traditional Cava varieties Xarel·lo, Macabeo, and Parellada. Produced in the Brut Nature style, it offers remarkable freshness and purity, with fine, persistent bubbles and a delicate, creamy texture. The nose is expressive, showing aromas of ripe white fruits, green apple, pear, citrus blossom and subtle floral notes. On the palate, it is soft, balanced and refreshing, with flavours of orchard fruits, lemon zest and hints of brioche, toasted bread and yeast derived from extended lees ageing. Its vibrant character, low acidity and long, clean finish make it an approachable yet sophisticated sparkling wine.

Masia Salat is produced using the traditional method (Método Tradicional), the same technique employed in Champagne production. After the base wines are fermented separately, a second fermentation takes place in the bottle, creating the wine’s fine mousse and persistent bubbles. The wine is aged on its lees for between 12 and 14 months, developing complexity, texture and characteristic notes of toast, pastry and yeast. The estate follows certified organic farming practices, using only natural organic fertilisers and avoiding herbicides, insecticides and synthetic chemicals. Hand harvesting and careful grape selection help preserve the freshness and quality of the fruit, while the extended ageing contributes depth and elegance to the finished wine.

The Masia Salat estate lies in the heart of the Penedès region of Catalonia, Spain, at approximately 200 metres above sea level. The vineyards benefit from a unique Mediterranean climate, tempered by cooling sea breezes and protected by the nearby Pyrenees mountains. These conditions provide ideal ripening for the indigenous Cava grapes, allowing them to retain freshness while developing aromatic complexity. The estate was established by Josep Masachs, whose commitment to organic viticulture laid the foundations for the project. Today, the vineyards continue to be farmed sustainably, reflecting a philosophy that combines respect for tradition, environmental responsibility and a deep connection to the land. The result is a wine that expresses both the character of Penedès and the authenticity of organic Cava production.
