Llopart

Catalan sparkling wines from indigenous grapes, rated by major critics.

Llopart produces sparkling wines from Catalunya, drawing on indigenous grapes and regional tradition. The winery's core range centers on Cava and Corpinnat—the latter a designation for traditional-method sparkling wines made within a defined zone using hand-harvested fruit and extended aging. Cava Original Brut blends Xarel-lo, Macabeo, and Montonico Bianco into a wine rated 93.0 by prestige critics including Wine Spectator, Wine Enthusiast, Wine Advocate, and Decanter. Corpinnat Leopardi Brut Nature, made from Xarel-lo alone, achieves 91.7. Panoramic Imperial Brut—a blend of Macabeo, Chardonnay, Xarel-lo, and Parellada—rates 91.0. These wines reflect the mineral, high-acid character typical of Catalan sparkling production, where cool nights and limestone soils favor crisp, food-friendly profiles. Xarel-lo, the region's signature variety, brings herbal notes and structure; Macabeo contributes freshness and floral aromatics. The Brut Nature designation signals minimal dosage, allowing the wine's natural acidity and complexity to dominate.
