It represents Freixenet’s commitment to delivering an approachable yet authentic sparkling experience, perfect for any occasion.

Character Description

Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut Cava presents a pale, brilliant straw yellow with a persistent and fine stream of bubbles. It offers a lively aromatic bouquet of green apple, crisp pear, and bright citrus zest, elegantly interwoven with subtle notes of toasted bread, almond, and a hint of white flowers from its time on lees. On the palate, it delivers a light to medium-bodied and refreshingly crisp texture, with vibrant fruit flavors mirroring the nose. It’s supported by a zesty acidity that provides a long, clean finish, balanced by a delicate creaminess that adds depth without sweetness. The finish is bright, invigorating, and perfectly dry, leaving a lingering impression of fresh fruit and a subtle yeasty complexity.

Perfect Pairings

This versatile Cava is an exceptional pairing for a wide array of dishes and celebrations. It serves beautifully as a refreshing aperitif, setting a lively tone for any gathering. It complements light appetizers such as olives, salted almonds, or bruschetta. Its crisp acidity and subtle richness also make it an ideal accompaniment to fried calamari, seafood paella, grilled white fish, or sushi. Furthermore, it surprisingly enhances the flavors of light poultry dishes and creamy cheeses. Its approachable and festive character makes it a fantastic choice for brunches, parties, or simply as an everyday indulgence.
