Their Corpinnat sparkling wines have forged a unique style defined by elegance and subtlety. Technical Sheet Winery: Own Vineyards, in Sant Sadurní de Noia (Barcelona), manual harvest.

The cork is sustainable, recyclable, and technically suitable for preserving the original essence of a long-aged sparkling wine. Manual disgorging without freezing. Disgorging (expulsion of the lees from the second fermentation in the bottle) is done by hand without freezing the neck of the bottle; artisan professionalism and respect for the environment. The second fermentation in the bottle is always done with a natural cork stopper, a hallmark of the Recaredo house for the long aging of all its wines. Recaredo Terrers undergoes aging ranging from 35 to 45 months in the bottle. This sparkling wine is clarified on a riddling rack manually, and disgorging is done by hand without freezing the neck of the bottle, in an exercise of artisan mastery. In Made in Spain, we start from the premise that it can be enjoyed at any time, always. Alone or accompanying the unique moments of your life. It is a gastronomic cava par excellence. Extraordinary for creative cuisine and to accompany fish or meats with complex flavors. It pairs very well with a caramelized foie gras mille-feuille, or accompanying smoked eel with spring onions and local apples. It is ideal with a beurre noir skate, or with Challans duck with chard and watercress. Also with an excellent acorn-fed ham. And as we always say at MadeinSpain, it pairs with whatever you want. Cradle of great sparkling wines Commitment to origin The CORPINNAT territory is the cradle of the great sparkling wines of the historic wine region of Penedès, south of Barcelona, where at the end of the 19th century it began, and where the production of these wines has been perfected, following the traditional method. The climate, the land, and the landscape, and a long experience in vine cultivation give this enclave the optimal conditions for the production of wines with a unique personality. 100% organic manual harvest Commitment to sustainability and the environment Based on manual harvests of certified organic grapes, based on historical varieties of Penedès, CORPINNAT takes a further step towards the sustainability of the territory and the landscape with profound respect for native varieties. 100% winemaking on the property Commitment to the production process CORPINNAT sparkling wines are made with grapes vinified entirely on the property to highlight the craftsmanship of the winemaker and guarantee the style and quality from the origin.
