Sparkling wine excavated in a mountain
Cavas de Zonda is a well-known sparkling wine, excavated in rock in the year 1928, by a Yugoslavian immigrant who gave himself the task of digging the 7 levels. It is just 16 kilometers from the capital and is accessed by the Provincial Route 12. In one of the cavities is the only South American cellar ceiling which is in the mountain. The inside temperature is between 16 º and 18 º throughout the year, and is recommended. Walking by them we saw strange figures cut in the rock, of different types and colors. Its production is based on and Chenis Chardonnay grapes that need the sun to achieve the required color and flavor.
It has a champagne color that is pale golden and depending on how you look at it you can find some green tones, it has very small and persistent bubbles and the aroma is lightly scented and fruity. It can be visited from Monday to Friday from 9 to 17 pm, and on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 11 to 17 hours. Particularly not usually eat breakfast with champagne and visits are made very early excursion thereby tried it after taking a bottle I bought in the sales room, which runs inside the mountain, although many of my fellow tour-mates is not lost even try one drink.
