Creators' opinion
Codorníu Be Frizz Frizzante Blanco offers aromas of white peach, green apple, and melon, with tropical echoes. On the palate, we perceive a good balance between acidity and fine bubbles, culminating in a pleasant finish reminiscent of lime and lemon.
The winery
Located in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, Codorníu is the oldest producer of cavas in Spain, with origins dating back five centuries. The company is the seed of one of the most important wine groups in Europe, with fifteen iconic wineries spread across Spain, Argentina, and California, as well as 3,000 hectares of owned vineyards. It is the second-largest cava producer in Spain, with an output of 45 million bottles. Until the Carlyle group acquired the majority of its shares in 2018, it was the oldest family-owned business in the country. Behind it stand 18 generations of a family of winemakers.
The modern history of Codorníu began in 1872, when Josep Raventós Fatjó, after a trip to the Champagne region, produced his first cava using three local grape varieties (macabeo, xarel.lo, and parellada) following the traditional or 'champenoise' method of double fermentation. Since then, Codorníu has been producing its cavas in a group of buildings declared a National Historic-Artistic Monument in 1976, designed in modernist style by architect Puig i Cadafalch. Codorníu exports nearly 45% of its production to almost a hundred countries worldwide.
