Hommage a Josep Mata Capellades Brut Nature Corpinnat
Homenatge a Josep Mata Capellades 2004 is the result of a joint effort by the second and third generations of the Recaredo family to commemorate the figure of Josep Mata Capellades, the founder of Recaredo, one hundred years after the birth of a passion for quality and for truly terroir sparkling wines. With its fresh, well-balanced acidity and particularly well-integrated bubbles, this corpinnat symbolises our passion for the craftsmanship of terroir, conveying the complexity of an extremely long-aged sparkling wine of outstanding character, without sacrificing freshness, and the most authentic expression of time and the Corpinnat territory. The Xarel·lo used to make this Corpinnat underwent the first fermentation in 300-liter oak barrels. Selection of old vineyards Xarel·lo and Macabeu, the Mediterranean varieties used to make Homenatge Josep Mata Capellades 2004, come from old vineyards planted in the north-eastern part of the Alt Penedès, around the Bitlles Valley Highlands. The soil is deep, sedimentary and highly calcareous, with a clay loam texture that facilitates water retention and gives a clear identity to wines made from the grapes grown there. The 2004 vintage: Homenatge Josep Mata Capellades 2004 is a tribute to the purity and defiance of an eminently rainy vintage, in which a dry summer asserts the Mediterranean essence of our land. With patience as a virtue, the 2004 vintage releases the memory of almost two decades of rest and stillness in the darkness of Recaredo’s cellars, evoking the old Xarel·lo and Macabeu vineyards, watched over by Montserrat Mountain, and embodying a living history that claims its place in our memory.
