Raventós i Blanc - Blanc de Blancs Brut 2021
Unveiling the Essence of Tradition and Innovation
The Raventós i Blanc Blanc de Blancs is a testament to the historical winemaking legacy of the Raventós family in Catalunya, Spain.
This sparkling wine stands out for its structured, fresh, and complex character, a result of meticulous cultivation and innovative blending, including the noteworthy addition of Malvasia de Sitges to its classic Catalan coupage, enhancing its natural acidity, strength, and aromatic complexity.
Produced in the esteemed Conca del Riu Anoia region, this vintage boasts a blend primarily of Xarel·lo, complemented by Macabeo, Parellada, and a touch of Malvasia de Sitges.
The vineyards, ranging in age from 40 to over 50 years, are nurtured using biodynamic practices that emphasize biodiversity and soil vitality.
The vinification process is equally thoughtful, with gravity-led grape reception, slow pressing, and controlled first fermentation, culminating in at least 18 months of aging with the lees in bottles without the addition of expedition liquor.
Their estate, with a wine history dating back to 1497, integrates vineyards, woodlands, and livestock, fostering a vibrant and self-sufficient ecosystem. The absence of added sugars and the commitment to expressing the terroir's authenticity mark Raventós i Blanc as a pioneer in the region.
Critics have lauded the Blanc de Blancs 2021, with Decanter and Robert Parker offering high ratings (90/100 and 91/100, respectively).
This sparkling wine's versatility shines through in its pairing potential, excellently complementing shellfish, fish, white meat in creamy sauces, and a variety of Mediterranean dishes.
