This Cavas Singulares project was born once the Cavas de Paraje project was consolidated. The production of these cavas is carried out in an artisanal way in the Celler Jaume micro-winery, located in the place where the first Codorniu cavas were made. They are born from small batches intended for learning, both at the vineyard and production level. If Celler Jaume is a tribute to the origin of Codorniu, Codorníu Ars collecta Cavas Singulares Tres Zonas is a tribute to the three main vineyard areas from which we obtain our best grapes.

Codorníu Oenologist

It is a very gastronomic cava due to its freshness and liveliness, and on the palate it has an unctuousness that makes it very versatile.It complements fish of all kinds well. It also forms good synergy with red or white meat birds.

The Winery

The history of Codorníu is the story of 18 generations of a vine growing family. In 1872, Josep Raventós made the first bottle of cava, applying the traditional method to a blend of the grape varieties of Penedès: Macabeo, Xarel·lo and Parellada. Codorníu reflects the history, tradition, passion and expertise of a family winery with more than 450 years of history, which today continues to maintain its leading position in the production of quality wines and cavas. His cellars in Sant Sadurní d’Anoia were declared a National Historic Artistic Monument in 1976, as one of the key works of Catalan modernism, created by Puig i Cadafalch.

Elaboration - Vinification

Night harvest. Three different areas, three different varieties, three different times for grape harvesting.

It is in the bottle where the fine bubbles of this cava are integrated and formed. It is aged with its lees for at least 70 months. Only 5,103 bottles have been produced.

Vineyard - Viticulture

Each of the three varieties that make up this cava comes from a single estate.

The Chardonnay comes from the Segrià area, in Lleida. An area with a continental climate with large thermal jumps that favours a fruit explosion of this variety. The Pinot Noir comes from the Conca de Barberà, an enclave where the Pinot Noir variety shows an elegant and fresh profile. The Xarel·lo variety comes from the area of the Garraf Natural Park where this variety is expressed in all its splendour. In the 2018 harvest we recovered the dates that were usual for the grape harvest. It was a wet year, which allowed the vines to recover from two years of a worrying drought. The phenological progress was slow due to the moderate temperatures during spring and summer and the rains at the end of August favored the development of the berries. The health was very good..
