- Reserva Real

This variety is cultivated, on a small scale, in our Middle Penedès vineyards. It has small, spherical berries, with fine pith and a moderately astringent pulp.

The wines made of this variety are somewhat lighter in tannins than those of Cabernet Sauvignon and, as a consequence, are usually blended with wines containing that variety so as to enhance ageing and maturity.
