Llopart Reserva Brut 2020 Corpinnat is a certified organic Corpinnat sparkling wine from the mountain vineyards of Can Llopart in Subirats, Catalonia. 🥂 The 2020 harvest brings together Xarel·lo (40%), Macabeu (30%) and Parellada (30%), three local grapes that express the character of the family estate. This is a white Brut made by the traditional method, with its second fermentation in the bottle.
Llopart Reserva Brut 2020 Corpinnat pours a bright straw yellow, with fine, steady bubbles. Its clean aroma is led by white fruit rather than heavy toast. On the palate it feels smooth, fresh and lively, with extended acidity and a lingering finish. The dosage is 7 g/L, keeping the wine in the Brut category while giving its crisp fruit a gentle balance. 🍏
The estate sits around 360 metres above sea level, among slopes and Mediterranean forest. Llopart farms its own vines organically and harvests by hand. The producer specifies at least 18 months of ageing for this vintage; the bottle pictured carries a 2020 harvest and an October 2023 disgorgement code. Enjoy Llopart Reserva Brut 2020 chilled to 6–8°C as an aperitif, or alongside seafood, lightly cooked fish and delicate savoury dishes. 🦪 Its measured fruit and persistent freshness make it an easy choice for a celebratory toast or a meal that calls for refined bubbles. The rear label identifies this wine as Corpinnat, so it should be chosen as such rather than as a Cava. 🇪🇸
