We have been immersed for three weeks in the second most important job of the year, after the harvest: bottling. Very intense days and a lot of work. Bottling is putting the wine together with the yeasts and sugars inside each bottle of cava. We do the whole process manually and we bottle by gravity<\/em>; this means that we do not use any pump and in this way the wine does not oxidize and enters the bottle in the best conditions. The sequence is: you put the wine in the bottles – we do it through some ‘spouts’ -, then you put the stopper (small piece of plastic), then we raise the bottles through a channel, and finally we cap them with a machine edgebander from 1961, but works very well! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All this, bottle by bottle, one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n


Once they are plated, they must be placed – also one by one – in a horizontal position in the cellar. This process is called “making the rhyme.” We make the rhyme with wooden cans and it is a time of nerves because it is a very fragile structure that is supported by the weight of the bottles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When they are already placed ‘in rhyme’, if everything goes well, the bottles will begin to make the second fermentation!<\/p>\n\n\n\n


We hope that a very good cava comes out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
