“The 2019 Terrers is a blend of 57% Xarel·lo, 25% Macabeu, 17% Parellada and 1% Monastrell from close to 60 different vineyards, all organic and biodynamic. It was disgorged after 40 months in bottle with the lees. Since 2017, they have used concentrated must from the same vintage to referment the wine in bottle, and since 2013, they have used indigenous yeasts for the first fermentation. 2019 was a very complete year, with good yields of healthy and expressive grapes, and I see it in the wines from this vintage. It's serious, subtle, elegant and compact with complexity and elegance, with a great balance between youth and age with the lees. It has a lively palate, with abundant, fine bubbles and some leesy flavors and with the volume from the lees and the bubbles. It has depth and complexity like no other vintage before. It has 12% alcohol, with a pH of 3.19 and 4.6 grams of acidity. 260,000 bottles produced. It was disgorged in November 2023. Drink Date: 2024 – 2030” – Luis Gutiérrez

“A blend of 57% Xarel·lo, 25% Macabeu, 17% Parellada and 1% Monastrell, the 2019 Terrers spent 42 months on lees and was disgorged in January of 2024. Yellow in hue, its spiced nose features curry, aniseed and Marsala, along with balsamic notes. Dry and refreshing, the mousse-like palate lingers long with a chalky texture. Saline and flavorful, this a beautiful take on Corpinnat. Drinking Window: 2024-2031
Since 1924, Recaredo has focused on sparkling wines. Founding members of Corpinnat, the third generation of the family tends to 100 biodynamically farmed hectares and produces solely Brut Nature at their Sant Sadurní d’Anoia winery. They use select yeasts by themselves and the second fermentation is done with wine must. Their wines are laudably expressive and balanced, with a common aromatic thread that sets them apart. Of all the sparkling wines I tried in Penedès, these were the ones that most captivated me with their distinctive identity, complexity and flavor.” – Joaquín Hidalgo
