Product Description
Details

This is the new vintage of the Corpinnat sparkling wine Llopart Leopardi, produced by Cavas Llopart, one of the best producers in Penedès.

This delicate Spanish sparkling wine is made from a blend of the traditional varieties Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada.

The grapes are sourced from old estate vineyards located near the town of Subirats, Alt Penedès.

Vinified in a traditional manner, secondary fermentation of the sparkling wine Llopart Leopardi 2017 took place inside the bottle. After that, this organic sparkling wine was aged for 60 months prior to its commercial release.

The vintage label of this Corpinnat sparkling wine, which reproduces a design from the year 1887, provides information about the origins and the long winemaking tradition of the  winery, which dates back to the fourteenth century.

This organic and vegan Corpinnat sparkling wine will nicely accompany a full-course dinner.

Appearance

The sparkling wine Llopart Leopardi is medium straw with golden tinges.

Nose

Elegant and complex, this blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada smells of citrus and garrigue, alongside with some creamy aromas, notions of orange rind and white flowers and delicate nuances of withered leaves and dry fruit.

Palate

Delicate and well-crafted, this Corpinnat sparkling wine from Cavas Llopart has a wonderfully refined texture, with palate-melting, tiny bubbles. Rich and complex, with fresh touches of lime and lemon, some creamy notions of pastry and hints of orange blossom, white flowers, raw almonds and and aromatic herbs. Great acidity and long, lively finish.

Our personal opinion

As subtle as it is enjoyable, the sparkling wine Llopart Leopardi 2017 black label is a first-rate Corpinnat brut nature sparkling wine.

A very respectable sparkler. Totally controlled, with great definition, it does not forget the sensuous side.

From one of the most interesting Cava producers. This I find extremly attractive, with a creamy and caressing palate, and that unique freshness that best Cavas had.
