Product Description
Details
The spectacular sparkling wine Recaredo Turó d'en Mota takes the ultra-local and minimal intervention biodynamic philosophy of the Recaredo winery to the nex level.
Considered by many the absolute best Spanish sparkling wine, this is also one of the few world sparklers that stands comparison with super premium Champagnes.
A varietal Xarel·lo, the grapes of this vegan sparkling wine come from a 1.5 hectare vineyard planted in 1940 that gives the wine its name ("Turó d'en Mota" means "Mota Hill")
The idea of the winemakers is thus quite clear. One variety - one vineyard - one vintage. The result is a one-of-a-kind Corpinnat Brut Nature sparkling wine.
Exquisitely crafted following the traditional method, the sparkling wine Recaredo Turó d'en Mota 2010 was aged for a minimum of 156 months - 13 years - in the cellar prior to its commercial release. No shipping liquor was added to the wine after the disgorging date printed on the back label.
We suggest that you open the bottle of this Corpinnat Brut Nature 30 minutes before you drink it.

Fresh, ripe yellow fruit, combined with floral notes and aromas of lees that, as the wine opens, give way to camomile, dry fruit, flint, tea leaves, dry earth, citrus, ginger, aniseed, limestone... to name only a few. This varietal Xarel·lo has a mind-blowing richness. |
| Palate | This organic sparkling wine from Recaredo has a razor-sharp acidity, an exceptional balance and some caressing, wonderfully integrated bubbles.

Enthralling
The best Cava ever. Period. It will live for 15, 20 or probably more years. I'm of the opinion that, mystique aside, the best Catalan sparklers have definitely caught up with Champagne.
