1299 – CORPINNAT KRIPTA from AGUSTÍ TORELLÓ MATA

Characteristics: Kripta is the result of the uniqueness of three terroirs that express the heterogeneity of the territory. The historical combination of its grapes and the climatic conditions of each vintage make it the most distinctive wine of the winery.

Vinification: The grapes for Corpinnat Kripta Gran Reserva de Luxe – Agustí Torelló come from carefully cultivated vineyards, where the vines develop in optimal conditions. The varieties used to make this high-quality cava are harvested by hand, selecting only the best grapes. Vinification is carried out using a traditional procedure that maximizes the purity and expressiveness of the grapes. The cava is then aged for a minimum of 36 months in bottle, which gives it its extraordinary complexity and a fine and persistent foam. Aging takes place in an environment that allows precise control of storage conditions, thus guaranteeing high quality standards.

Aging: Aging in bottle with natural cork stopper. 8 years of aging in the penumbra of the cellars at a constant natural temperature of 17 ºC.
