Product Description
Details

The excellent Corpinnat sparkling wine Gran Torelló Brut Nature is produced from grapes coming from a single vineyard, Can Martí, which belongs to the Torelló family since 1395.

Made from a traditional blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada, this Spanish sparkling wine was crafted using only the free-run juice, which was vinified in stainless steel tanks.

After that, the sparkling wine Gran Torelló Brut Nature 2016 was bottled and aged for a minimum of 72 months in the cellar.

Once that period was finished, this Corpinnat sparkling wine was manually disgorged.

We suggest that you open this Corpinnat brut nature sparkling wine wine some time before you drink it.

Appearance

The sparkling wine Gran Torelló is pale yellow with some golden tinges.

Nose

With an impressive aromatic richness, this blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada smells of candied citrus peel, peach compote, jasmine, pastry and dry fruit, combined with aromas of aniseed. On the background, this Corpinnat gran reserva sparkling wine suggests dim mineral undertones and remembrances of fennel.

Palate

Bold and pleasant, this Gran Reserva of the Torelló winery has a creamy body enlivened by tiny, caressing bubbles. Suggestions of English custard, sweet lemon, aromatic herbs, almonds and French patisserie. Very good acidity and long finish.

Our personal opinion

Serious, elegant and mature, the sparkling wine Gran Torelló Brut Nature 2016 is a top-level fizz that will enhance your gatherings and celebrations.

Another spectacularly upgraded Cava. It has more or less everthing: poise, depth, freshness and local identity. It seems to me that Cava producers have definitely left behind their insecurities about being considered second-rate Champagne producers and are becoming increasingly ambitious and focused on quality.
