/// Awards /// Gold for the Guilera Agosarat 2006 and Bronze for the Guilera Xarel·la Red 2014 _._
The 36th edition of the London International Wine Challenge was held last May. This contest is one of the most prestigious and rigorous internationally and rewards the best wines and sparkling wines of the moment. All tastings are blind and have the collaboration of top-level professionals. At the IWC 2019 edition, more than 15,000 wines from all over the world were presented. At Cava Guilera we decided to present two of our Gran Reserva cavas, the most mature and the newest: Guilera Agosarat 2006 and Guilera Xarel·la Roja 2014. Both received a medal; gold and bronze respectively.
INTERNATIONAL WINE CHALLENGE 2019
Guilera Agosarat 2006
- Gold medal and 95 IWC 2019 points.
- International Wine Challenge Tasting Notes: Nose an orchestra of developed, but still fresh, aromas of beeswax and cooked pear, with toasty hints of sourdough. Palate very dry and infinitely long.
Guilera Red Xarel·la 2014
- Bronze medal and 86 IWC 2019 points
- International Wine Challenge Tasting Notes: Complex and well balanced. Pure lemon and remarkable autolytic character. Crisp acidity and a dry pithy finish.
