Details
Elegant yet quietly powerful, De la Finca opens with aromas of lemon zest, baked apple, elderflower, fennel and toasted pastry, followed by a saline, mineral edge that gives the wine real personality. The palate is super fresh and finely textured, with creamy, persistent bubbles and a long, briny finish. Zero dosage keeps everything razor-sharp, letting the vineyard speak clearly and confidently.
Alright, picture this: your favourite Champagne just met its laid-back Catalan cousin who surfs at sunrise and gardens biodynamically by moonlight - that’s 'Raventós i Blanc'. This estate is the real deal - like, they’ve been growing grapes since 1497, and yeah, that’s over 500 years of the same family working the same land. Not only did they kickstart the entire Spanish sparkling wine scene with the first traditional method bottle way back in 1872, but today, they’re leading the charge with biodynamic winemaking that’s all about balance, biodiversity, and letting nature do its thing. We’re talking donkeys, owls, wild forests, and even Pyrenean cow compost - all working together to make the vineyard a full-on living, breathing ecosystem. It’s not just wine - it’s wine with soul. Now, here’s where it gets vibey. Under the watchful eye of Manuel and Pepe Raventós, who are the 20th and 21st generations (yep, - twenty-first!) and basically the Jedi masters of sparkling wine, these wines are next-level. Everything’s estate-grown, indigenous grapes only - no shortcuts, no chemicals. In 2012 Raventós i Blanc walked away from the Cava DO because they wanted something more honest and expressive - enter 'Conca del Riu Anoia', their own appellation focused on real terroir. Pop a bottle, and trust - this is where tradition meets pure, biodynamic brilliance.

Pairing guide
This is a sparkling wine that loves food. It’s a brilliant match for oysters, grilled prawns, salt-baked fish or roasted chicken with herbs, but it’s just as happy at a vegetarian or vegan table. Try it with artichokes drizzled in olive oil and lemon, grilled asparagus with almonds, or a chickpea, fennel and citrus salad to echo the wine’s freshness and saline character. Its vibrant acidity and fine mousse cut through richness beautifully, making it a perfect choice from aperitif through to the main course - and an easy excuse for a second glass.
