Winery Notes:

Color: Very pale straw yellow. A fine elegant mousse.

Nose: Predominant fruity aromas from the traditional varietals: white fruit (apple, pear), citrus and notes of white flowers.

Palate: An expressive balanced mouthfeel that is creamy and fresh.

Cuvée Barcelona 1872 Brut, made using the classic grape varieties, Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada, pays tribute to the year that Josep Raventós created the very first bottle of cava.  This sparkling wine revives the traditional way of making cava, with the same varieties, in a bottle inspired by the modernist stained glass windows in the Codorníu winery. Its fruity aromas, creamy texture and expressive nature earned it 90 points from the prestigious wine critic James Suckling in 2020.
