Alegría de Tharsys – Sweet Chardonnay Cava
Alegría de Tharsys is a white sparkling wine made from the Chardonnay grape variety. This cava is produced following the traditional method, with aging on the lees for over 14 months. The grapes are hand-harvested and go through a careful selection process before being pressed. After bottling for the second fermentation, the cava rests in an underground cellar, and one month before disgorgement, manual riddling is carried out. With a dosage of 50 grams per liter, the expedition liqueur—a secret blend of aged sweet wines—gives it a unique and exotic character.
TASTING NOTES
Appearance: Old gold color with golden highlights. Fine, energetic, and persistent bubbles.
Nose: An explosion of fruity aromas: apricot, cherimoya, loquat, peach, and a hint of licorice root. Fine, rapid, and persistent bubbles.
Palate: Creamy and lingering sensation, with an excellent balance between acidity and sweetness. The fine, energetic bubbles enhance the freshness and lightness.
Serving and Pairing
Alegría de Tharsys is a versatile wine meant to be enjoyed your way—no strict rules. It can be served very cold (at 3ºC) or even over ice, accompanying a wide variety of dishes such as fresh fruit, yogurt, compotes, salmon and avocado toasts, eggs Benedict, or sweet pancakes. It also pairs exceptionally well with natural peach or orange juice, along with a few fresh verbena leaves and a twist of lime peel. The enjoyment is amplified when shared with a view of the sea or mountains, especially at sunset. However, the true pleasure of Alegría de Tharsys lies in sharing it with friends—anywhere, anytime.
