A long-aged sparkling wine from Spain's Penedès region. Crafted from indigenous grapes, it boasts a rich flavor profile with citrus, flowers, and toasted nuts.
Biodynamically and organically farmed and produced grapes. Aged 6 months in tank and over 13 years on the lees, hand riddled and disgorged - Brut Nature
Penedès is home to the famed Cava wines - Spain's traditional method sparkling wine made primarily from the indigenous grapes Xarel-lo, Parellada, and Macabeo - and no collection of wines is complete without at least one of these. Even more distinguished are wines made with the Corpinnat appellation on the label, as these wines come from a specific spot within Penedès that require producers to farm 100% organically and age their wines on the lees for longer periods than Cava. This is an outstanding example of just how good these wines can be. It is a low production gem fit for the most precious of occasions.
The 2009 Enoteca Brut Nature was produced with a blend of 65% Xarel.lo and 35% Macabeo from their Font Jui vineyard that is now mentioned on the label. 2009 was a very balanced vintage in line with years like 2013 and 2019, very complete and balanced. It has some toasty notes and feels quite fresh and young (even from a bottle) after being in bottle with the lees for 13 years! It's subtle and elegant, with very subtle carbonic gas, very, very fine bubbles but still a sparkling wine. They are trying to keep the bottles for six months after disgorgement before putting the wines on the market. I love the spicy nose, the nutty undertones and the very elegant and subtle palate. Superb! 1,500 bottles produced. It was disgorged in June 2023.
