Freixenet Cordon Negro Extra Dry Cava Sparkling Wine

Freixenet (pronounced "fresh-eh-net"), best known for its "black bottle bubbly" Cordon Negro, is a family-owned company that grew from humble beginnings in rural Catalunya. The roots of Freixenet stretch back to 1861 and are embedded in the history of two longstanding winemaking families, the Ferrers and the Salas, whose expertise, determination and ingenuity intertwined to form the foundation of the company that today is the world leader in sparkling wines. The proof, as they say, is in the bottle: today, the most often popped corks in the world say "Freixenet.“ This sparkling white wine is a crisp, clean and well-balanced 'cava'. A dry sparkling wine that whispers just a hint of sweetness, Cordon Negro Brut Extra Dry pleases a variety of palates. Earthy, fruity, and blessed with peach, melon and candied citrus essence, this cava leads up to a long, smooth finale of intoxicating flavors and aromas. This Cava is perfectly paired with seafood, grilled meats, and spicy foods. It is best served chilled in a champagne flute or a white wine glass.
