Background

History

Founded in 1908 by the Parera family, the house has been run since by the founders’ heirs, always with the will to bring the art of sparkling wine-making to the glass. Castellblanch was one of the first companies to use their own selection of yeasts and apply the process of microfiltration prior to tirage to purify the fermentation in the bottle. The Castellblanch production process has since become a model for advanced stirring methods.

Regional info

The winery is situated in Sant Sadurni d'Anoia in Spain.

This review is for the 2004 vintage

I thoroughly enjoy this wine. It feels wonderful on the tongue and leaves a very pleasant after taste. It is an excellent sparkling wine to accompany Chicken, Fish, Shellfish or Pasta dishes. It is also a great wine to just pour a glass and enjoy. My Favourite

Good biscuity flavour, lasting fizz, a great alternative to champers at a third of the price.

A crisp, dry fizz, without lemony undertones with lots of long lasting small bubble sparkle. Great for parties. Will buy again.

It was well liked by the guests at our son's wedding and I am sure that most had no idea just how reasonably priced it was.

great value

A superior tasting sparkling wine, which appeals to most ladies of various ages. I found it easy to drink with a meal or on its own, but it must be well chilled. We had it with a cold fish buffet, a really good choice for a festive occassion. if you can't stretch to champagne.

Only buy this wine because I can't get to France to buy it cheaper. Love it with cassis as a Kir Royale.
