Wine tasting in Barcelona, Spain! I had the pleasure of wine tasting with the hubz and my brother's family at Recaredo Winery during our recent vacation to Spain. If you're planning on visiting Barcelona, I highly recommend that you make a wine tasting reservation here.
Recaredo Winery is located in a historic Barcelona wine valley called The Penedes Wine Region. They are pioneers in biodynamic, viticulture, and is a step beyond organic farming. Their vineyards are handled with care by hand without the use of industrial machinery, chemical fertilizers, herbicides, or fungicides. They also use old-fashioned, traditional techniques of disgorgement when making wines. It's still done by true artisans, who expel the lees manually at the naturally cool temperatures of the cellars. What also makes their wines unique is the use of their grape juice (instead of using processed sugar) during the fermentation process. Recaredo's long-aged sparkling wines spend a minimum of 2.5 to 20 years in their dark cellars and are only aged with natural cork stoppers. Their dedication and commitment to their community, land, traditional techniques, and quality wines are what makes Recaredo's
Corpinnat Sparkling Wines exceptional!
I highly recommend a visit if you are staying in the Barcelona area.
