The elegant Llopart Original 1887 Brut Nature was first produced in commemoration of the 125 anniversary of Cavas Llopart.
This complex Corpinnat sparkler is a very special product. It was crafted following the same methods the winery used to produce its first Spanish sparkling wine.
All of the grapes were sorted from three different, very old, low-yielding grapevines planted in a mountainous area near the winery.
Made from a traditional blend of Macabeo and Xarel·lo, the third component is called here by its local name, Montònega, a high-altitude variant of the well-known Parellada grape.
The entire winemaking process is wonderfully traditional. After a meticulous process, Llopart Original 1887 Brut Nature 2010 was aged for a minimum of 120 months in the bottle.
The delightfully vintage label of this Corpinnat sparkling wine reproduces the one used when the first Llopart Original 1887 was produced, more than a hundred years ago.
Appearance | The sparkling wine Llopart Original 1887 Brut Nature is medium gold with some bright amber-coloured reflections. |
---|---|
Nose | This blend of Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Montònega is subtle, intense and profound. Med garrigue and dry fruit, with a dash of white flowers and some creamy and bakery aromas, intertwined with lime, bergamot and citrus. There is a subtle mineral background. |
Palate | This sparkling wine of Cavas Llopart passes through the palate pleasantly and swiftly, with very well integrated carbonation and excellent acidity. There is creaminess, notes of aromatic herbs, a dash of chamomile and chinotto, remembrances of white flowers and notes of a pastry store. Dry, textured and very fresh, with a finish that is very pleasant and persistent. |
Our personal opinion | A first rate sparkler, Llopart Original 1887 Brut Nature 2010 is a characteristic, exquisite Corpinnat sparkler which is a great tribute to the anniversary of this winery. |
