CORDON NEGRO
This is the world’s favourite Spanish sparkling wine and is known for its beautiful and sexy black bottle. Its fresh, crisp and fruity aroma goes with just about everything and magically makes every moment just that bit more special.
So how does Freixenet Cordon Negro taste? It’s a light, modern Cava with a very refreshing style and lots of bubbles that really last. When you taste it, you’ll pick up hints of citrus fruit and an aroma that reminds you of both apple and pear as well as peach, melon and pineapple.
We make this wonderful wine in three varieties – Brut, Dry and Medium Dry. Brut is a crisp, clean, very dry wine, containing almost no sugar. Dry, despite its name, is not as dry as Brut and has a hint of sweetness. And finally, Medium Dry is a fruity, sweeter wine. All of these taste great with most foods but try Brut with Asian cuisine and the sweeter versions with dessert.

CORDON ROSADO
Rosado is our Spanish word for Rosé and is the cava for those of you who like their sparklers soft, smooth and … pink!
So what is this pink sparkler like? To look at, it is bright strawberry in colour with plenty of bubbles, which create a lovely white crown at the top of your glass. It has a delicious aroma of flowers and red fruits, with hints of the more exotic grenadine, dried figs and dates. And in the mouth, it delivers a fresh, light and soft taste of red fruits.
We make our Cordon Rosado in three levels of sweetness: Brut, Dry and Medium Dry. Brut is the driest with a low sugar dosage and spicy, smooth taste. Both Dry and Medium Dry offer sweeter tastes. This is a lovely sparkling wine to have with poultry, pork and lighter desserts.

Our Cordon Negro is made by blending three local grapes: the Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Parellada. They are all handpicked and pressed in our winery in Sant Sadurní where, after ten days, the first fermentation is completed. The juice is then clarified, blended, bottled and stored deep in our cellars where, after 10-14 months, a secondary fermentation and full maturity are reached.
Cordon Rosado is blended from two grape varieties – Trepat and Garnacha. The Trepat is chosen because of its powerful aroma and is quite rare to find in our Catalunya region. Like all our Cavas, this sparkling wine undergoes two fermentations – the first after about twelve days in temperature-controlled tanks and the second during its 12-18 months maturing period in the cellar-stored bottles.
Our Carta Nevada is made with the three famous Cava grapes: Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Paradella. The fruit is harvested by hand between August and October and then pressed pneumatically to obtain the juice, which ferments in tanks after 10-15 days. This liquid is then clarified, blended, bottled and stored in cellars under the Sant Sadurni winery for up to 14 months.
Our wine makers have enriched our blend of classical Cordon Negro grapes with Chardonnay to make it more intense and balance the chill of the ice.
We make it by combining the classic three Cava grapes of Macabeo, Xarel.lo and Paradella. The grape juice goes through two stages of fermentation: the first in tanks after twelve days and the second after bottling and storage in our cellars deep in the chalk beds under our Winery.
