WINE MAKING PROCESS
Llopart Panoramic Corpinnat Imperial Brut 2018 is produced using the traditional method for sparkling wine. The base wine undergoes an initial fermentation at 15°C. Following this, a secondary fermentation occurs in the bottle, leading to the wine's characteristic bubbles. Corpinnat regulations mandate extended aging periods, significantly longer than standard Cava, allowing the wine to develop complexity and refine its texture. The grapes are hand-harvested from organically cultivated vineyards, emphasizing the producer's dedication to sustainable and high-quality winemaking.
