Codorniu Vintage Organic Cava Brut

Vintage is a cava made with a blend of the traditional grape varieties: Macabeu, Xarel.lo and Parellada. Pale gold in colour with fine, persistent bubbles. Fresh with intense aromas of apple and pleasant floral notes.
Cava is made according to the traditional method. The second fermentation, to produce bubbles and the unique flavour, takes place in this bottle.

Founded in 1551, Codorniu is Spain's oldest winery, and is considered by many as the House of Cava, the most renowned Spanish Sparkling wine. Codorníu Cuvée Vintage is a tribute to the first cava made by Josep Raventós in 1872 with the native varieties Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Parellada and using the prestigious Traditional method.

Codorniu is the oldest winery in Spain, founded in 1551, and were also the creators of the first ever Cava sparkling wine in 1872, when the Raventos family combined the three local grape varieties of Macabeu, Xarel.lo and Parellada. Using the traditional method as in Champagne, and with ageing on the lees and second fermentation in the bottle, the aromas and flavour profile are fresh and fruity but with added complexity and balance.

Grapes used in the production of Codorniu Vintage Organic Cava are sourced mainly from an area of D.O. Cava in North Eastern Spain close to Barcelona that has a Mediterannean climate where the local varieties manifest their true character. They are grown in vineyards chosen by our viticultural team to continually improve the crop, with their ripening monitored to establish the optimum moment for harvesting and to ensure the grapes get to the winery in peak condition.

We plan the optimum harvesting time for each grape variety used. The first to ripen is Macabeo, followed by Xarel.lo and finally Parellada. The grapes are destemmed & crushed to obtain the must. They are then blended and the resulting wine is bottled with the liqueur de tirage. The bottles undergo the second fermentation followed by a period of ageing in contact with the lees of the yeasts for a minimum of 9 months. The Cava is disgorged and the expedition liqueur added, which determines its dosage.
