The
owners of Raventós i Blanc are the direct descendents of Josep Raventós Fatjó, who
made the first bottles of Cava in 1872 under Codorníu brand. Using the grapes cultivated
by the family in their own vineyards at Sant Sadurní d’Anoia, they produce a
complete range of sparkling and still wines. L’Hereu is their ‘premier’, the
basic sparkling in their Cava range, which expresses the complexity that
defines the work of the house. With Macabeu as the main variety and structural
base, L’Hereu is a pleasant Brut Reserva with at least 15 months in the bottle,
maturing with the dead yeasts. It’s a fresh wine, specially suitable for almost
all kind of appetizers.
