LUNA DE MURVIEDRO BRUT D.O. CAVA
Murviedro, ‘Muri Veteres’ gets its name from the ancient walls that surround the old town. They bear witness to an ancient spirit which, even today, wanders through the caves and cellars.
Luna de Murviedro is the first Cava made by Bodegas Murviedro. Cava Brut is made from the grape variety Macabeo, grown in the vineyards of Requena on the best quality soils that are exposed to long hours of sunshine so that the grapes reach their perfect ripeness.

Area of Production
Denominación de Origen Cava (Requena). Continental climate with Mediterranean influences. Large day and night temperature variations. Average annual temperature 13ºC. Chalky-clay soils.

Grape Variety

• 100% Macabeo

Winemaking
The carefully selected Macabeo grapes are picked at the beginning of September. Following a cold maceration of the grapes in pneumatic presses, the must is fermented in stainless steel tanks at a temperature of 14ºC. In January a process called ‘tiraje’ takes place where the new wine is bottled and the second fermentation occurs in the bottle. The Cava is stored in ‘rima’, special containers for holding the bottles in position, for 11 months.
