Celebrate Life with Anna from Codorníu
Don't save the bubbly for the holidays. I'm encouraging you to stock your fridge with a few tasty bottles of bubbly and celebrate the everyday. A few weeks ago I was introduced to the Codorníu vineyards. For 450 years this Spanish brand has been making scrumptious wines. While you might first think of Champagne and France when you think of bubbles, Spain offers some unexpected and wonderfully affordable options.
I sat down with Bruno Colomer Martí--the Head Winemaker at Codorníu. He walked me through the unique soil of Spain and how the lovely chardonnay grapes are perfect for creating delightful Cava.
Affordable, accessible and delightful, these wines are made for drinking with friends and sharing a meal. During my tasting in NYC I was treated to three varieties. I want to share two of my discoveries in the hope that you'll pop open one this weekend.
This wine seems to be made for the modern multi-tasking mom. The Anna wines are made to be savored immediately. You don't have to be an expert to enjoy this wine or to feel guilty about opening up a pricey bottle mid-week. This wine is about making the most of little moments--small spaces in your life for joy.
