Organic

The sparkling wine Celler Kripta Barrica Gran Reserva is made by the Agustí Torelló Mata-Celler Kripta winery, a member of the Corpinnat association.
This varietal Spanish sparkling wine is sourced from a single Macabeo vineyard, Pla dels Fidels, planted in 1964 and organically certified.
First, the grapes were fermented and aged on lees for 6 months in French oak barrels.
Then the wine was blended and bottled. After completing secondary fermentation, the sparkling wine Celler Kripta Barrica Gran Reserva 2019 was aged for a minimum of 5 years.
Creamy and Champagne-like, this organic and vegan sparkling wine certainly deserves a try.
We suggest drinking this Corpinnat gran reserva brut nature from Penedès throughout an entire meal.

| Palate | The entrance onto the palate of this organic and vegan Corpinnat of bodega Agustí Torelló Mata-Celler Kripta is creamy and gently dry. Round and nuanced, with a crisp acidity and a persistent finish with some nutty notes and a bitter touch. |
