2019

55% Xarel.lo, 35% Macabeu and 10% Parellada from four vineyards ("Cuc", "Figuera", "Triangle" & "Pupurri"), each located surrounding the winery in the hills of Penedes at different altitudes (200-500m), microclimates and Xilobí soils. Grapes are hand harvested, fermented/aged in tank on the lees for 6 months, and then aged for an additional 26 months before being disgorged.

"The main sparkling wine is the 2019 Descregut Brut Nature, produced with 55% Xarel.lo, 35% Macabeu and 10% Parellada from different vineyards in their village. The grapes fermented separately in stainless steel and then were blended and kept with the lees until the spring, when it was put in bottle to referment. It was disgorged after some 30 months in bottle with the lees, as all the Corpinnat wines have their disgorgement date on the back labels. The wine is 11.5% alcohol and has good freshness and precision, with textbook notes of fennel and aniseed; it's clean and expressive, with a long, dry and tasty finish. 30,000 bottles produced."
