Four years or more on the lees give these Xarel·lo-led Corpinnat Brut Nature wines a savoury, lees-rich depth that meets Garrotxa's buttery paste and damp-cellar rind, while high acidity and a fine bead refresh the goat's milk.
Mató is unsalted, milky and mild, and is eaten as a dessert with honey. This Muscat ancestral sparkling is off-dry at 6.5% alcohol, with white peach, lychee and a soft bubble, so it plays the part of the honey without overwhelming the curd.
Five years or more on the lees give these zero-dosage Corpinnat wines a savoury, autolytic depth that suits a mature pressed cheese, while the bone-dry palate, high acidity and fine bead cut the fat of a serrat.
Address: Finca Chateau Leon s/n, 08775 Torrelavit, Penedes
