Decanter om: Cava Mas Via Gran Reserva Brut

Cava becomes great with excellent grapes and very slow ageing. Mestres epitomise this: 12 months ageing in oak before second fermentation in bottle and 140 months developing complexity with its lees. Astonishing freshness in the nose, with pungent quince, lemon peel and white fruit aromas, plus a spicy hint. Sound, creamy, with a velvety texture, a wine to drink seated and with attention. Complex, offering its best in the very long finish: open, multi-layered. 96/100

Parker om: Cava Mas Via Gran Reserva Brut

The 2004 Mas Vía Gran Reserva has a similar color and aromatic palette as the 2004 Clos Damiana tasted next to it, but this one is a brut adjusted to some five grams of sugar, which actually feels very integrated and in a way makes for a longer aftertaste. This matured in bottle, where it was kept for a 160 months (over 13 years!). The palate has great harmony and elegance, with balance and integrated gas. It is complex, balanced and long. Truly outstanding. 2,950 bottles produced. 94/100
