A new versión of Barbadillo’s
Beta Brut has been launched: Beta Sur. Like its sister wine, it is made from
Palomino and Chardonnay grapes grown in the firm’s own vineyards and made by
the traditional method with a second fermentation in bottle. Unlike its sister
wine, no dosage is added, making it a brut nature, and it spends 20 months
rather than nine ageing on its lees in bottle. The Beta wines are not covered
by the Cava regulations, but if they were, Beta Sur would be a reserva. The
wine was launched at the Flamenco Dance Museum in Sevilla and served along with
good music and food specially chosen to match Beta Sur.
