3rd Edition of the Base Wine Corpinnat Tasting
The third edition of the Base Wines Corpinnat Tasting took place on Sunday, February 2nd, at the El Avenida Palace Hotel in Barcelona.
Over 400 people, including wine trade professionals, sommeliers, importers, distributors, specialized press, as well as enthusiasts and wine lovers, discovered the essence of Corpinnat by tasting the base wines from the 2024 vintage.

At each producer's table, attendees had the opportunity to enjoy the base wines from the 2024 harvest – both the individual grape varieties and the blends, all produced entirely within each winery. Over time, these will evolve into Corpinnat sparkling wines with extended aging. Additionally, attendees were able to compare a finished Corpinnat with its corresponding base wine from the 2024 harvest, interpreting its aging potential.

This year, and as a novelty, three guided tastings were scheduled in three different languages to dive deeper into the greatness of the base wines and their importance in long-aged Corpinnat wines.

The three guided tastings – with a limited capacity of 30 people per session – were distributed as follows:
5:30 PM – Language: Catalan. Hosted by Arantxa de Cara (Can Descregut).
Arantxa de Cara took participants through two base Corpinnat wines from the 2024 vintage, Descregut and Fumissola, as well as their finished counterparts from the 2022 and 2021 vintages, respectively.
6:30 PM – Language: Spanish. Hosted by Jaume Gramona (Gramona).
Jaume Gramona presented the individual varietal base wines (Macabeu and Xarel·lo) from the 2024 vintage that will be part of III Lustros, as well as the already blended III Lustros 2024 and Gramona III Lustros 2016. The session also featured a Pinot Noir and Garnatxa Negra from the 2024 vintage, which will eventually become Gramona Argent Rosat, alongside the finished Gramona Argent Rosat 2020.
7:30 PM – Language: English. Hosted by Jessica Madigan (Cisteller).
Jessica Madigan presented a Xarel·lo from the 2024 vintage and its counterpart from the 2022 vintage, which is set to be released in the coming months (still in aging). She also showcased the final blend of the Courtship 2024 base wine and its 2023 counterpart, which is still in the aging phase.

Additionally, throughout the day, attendees enjoyed an exceptional tasting experience with Riedel Experience glasses, presented by Euroselecció.
