Villa Conchi Cava Extra Brut Imperial Sparkling Wine

Elaboration

The Imperial is the most refined and most carefully calibrated wine in the Villa Conchi range — an Extra Brut Reserva Cava from the exceptional vineyards near Vila Rodona in the Alt Penedès that Javier Ruiz de Galarreta found when he committed himself, in the 2000s, to building a Cava that matched his mother Conchi's exacting standards for exquisite sparkling wine. With 40% Xarel·lo providing the structural backbone and mineral freshness, Macabeo and Parellada contributing aromatic complexity and elegance, and Chardonnay adding the warm roundness and slight smokiness that lifts this blend into the Extra Brut category with complete authority, the Imperial is the Villa Conchi that rewards the most attention and delivers the most complete experience. Conchi passed away in July 2009 — her memory lives on in the wines that bear her name, exquisite creations that embody the spirit and finesse that defined her life and inspired everything that followed.
