Description:

Codorníu is Spain's longest-standing producer of wine and Cava. In 1872, Josep Raventós made the first bottle of Cava here, applying the Traditional Method (the second bottle fermentation used in Champagne) to a blend of local Penedès grape varieties: Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada. Today, this family winery is 450 years old, and the same attention to detail remains. This is a crisp and fruity sparkling wine, with notes of citrus, apple, honey and toast.
