1260 – Corpinnat Llopart Rosé Brut Reserve

1260 – CORPINNAT LLOPART ROSÉ BRUT RESERVE – 24 Months of Ageing

Wine characteristics: A unique rosé, fruit of the Mediterranean variety Monestrell. Cheerful and vibrant, this rosé brut reserva offers us the best option to enjoy bubbles at any time. Light cold maceration to extract aromas and colour from the skin of the grapes, prior to gentle pressing.

The vineyard: Located in a unique enclave, in the municipality of Subirats, in the Alt Penedès mountain area, the Can Llopart estate comprises 500 hectares between vineyard and forest, at an average altitude of 360 meters. The 102 hectares of our own vineyard are the essence of our personality. We cultivate the land in an ecological way, according to the parameters of sustainable cultivation, with the utmost respect for the environment. The peculiar geological configuration of our estate, with its rugged orography in the form of slopes and terraces, and with a shallow soil depth, gives rise to vines with a large root extension, limited vigor and one of the lowest productions in our wine-growing area.

Elaboration: Manual harvesting of the selected vines and pressing of the entire grape to maintain its properties as much as possible. We ferment the musts at a low temperature to preserve the freshest aromas in the wine. The blend of base wines is bottled at the beginning of the year and the bottles are placed in racks where, at constant temperature and humidity, in the dark, they will rest for more than 18 months. After aging, we cut the neck to remove the lees from the wine, add the expedition liqueur and cover with the definitive cork.

Varieties: Monestrell 60%, Grenache 20% and Pinot Noir 20%

Graduation: 11.8% Vol
