9.1

The 2018 Brut Imperial is a Corpinnat blend of 56% Xarel·lo, 30% Macabeo, 10% Parellada and 4% Chardonnay. Produced using the traditional method, it spent 60 months on the lees. The bouquet features aromas of lime and lemon pie, complemented by a delicate array of fine herbs. Dry and creamy on the palate, the ethereal flow is enlivened by calibrated acidity. Refreshing and joyful, this sparkling wine is a delight. (Joaquín Hidalgo, Vinous, September 2024)

Яркого розового цвета.
Фруктовые и дрожжевые ноты, с солоновато-горьким послевкусием. Не сложно, не легко, но интересно. — 6 years ago

A rare and as-yet unreleased wine. Celler Batlle aged TWELVE YEARS on the lees. Holy moly! 1500 bottles made brut, 1500 bottles made brut nature. — 13 years ago

Vintage 2016 | in p/q this corpinnat beats many, many bubbles. Beautiful fruit in smell, apricot, taste with almonds bitters. Love it 😍 — 2 years ago

Great rose sparkler! Like a cava, but from just nearby so corpinnat designation. Dried strawberries, red raspberries, some floral notes, and some light tannins. A touch creamy on the midpalate? Even better as it warms to room temp. — 4 years ago

Lime, green apple; freshness with depth. Smoke / pencil eraser note there but delicate, adding a layer as opposed to dominant. Great touch of toasted vanilla lees on palate. Very good and gorgeous; wouldn’t been great but seemed a tad flat (just wanted a bit more fizz and flash). One of the best “cavas” I’ve ever had. — 2 years ago

100% old vine Xarel-lo with long maturation, ripe pear, and soft citrus notes, creamy, toasted nuts on the long finish. If you're looking for an interesting and complex Corpinnat worth the price, this is it. — 4 years ago

This is the best Cava I have ever had, even if it calls itself a Corpinnat. Great yeasty flavors and nose. Nice bubbles. Still, at its high price, there is no comparison with Champagne. — 5 years ago

47 months. Disgorged 28 March 2019. Intense red colour for a rose, almost close to a Beaujolais noveau colour. Super expressive in the nose with strawberries and raspberries. Doesn’t disappoint in the mouth with both fruits up, front and center. Finishes clean with just enough acidity. Lush soft bubbles. Amazing. Just so quaffable. — 7 years ago
