White

Ton Mata, Recarado’s third generation custodian, was a driving force behind the creation of the Corpinnat designation. The house specialises in vintage brut nature, always long-aged under cork and always disgorged by hand with zero dosage. This wine is 100% Xarel·lo, hand harvested from certified biodynamic vines from the Serral del Roure estate. Christine Parkinson: Butter, salt, seaweed with bready, yeasty and praline notes. The ultra-long finish ends on peanut shells and ripe melon. This has weight, but lift and gracefulness make for easy drinkability. Quiet, but also emphatic. Will stand up to food. Sarah Jane Evans MW: Complex aromatics of baked fruits, marmalade, cumin. Full Bodied, an explosion of flavour. Honey, wild strawberry, baked apricot, patisserie, sweet spices. Valentin Radosav: Fresh yellow apple, melon, papaya. A fine, refreshing mousse. Ripe, clean, expressive fruit. Complex sage, rosemary, camomile and subtle brioche.
