Pickup Only – Ottawa-Gatineau: This product is available for local pickup in Ottawa only and cannot be shipped.

Hailing from Spain's Penedès region, Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut Cava is an iconic, crisp sparkling wine presented in its signature matte-black bottle. Crafted using the traditional method, this light-bodied Cava delivers vibrant aromas of green apple, pear, and bright Mediterranean citrus, complemented by subtle toasted brioche notes from aging. Its fine, persistent bubbles and sharp, well-balanced acidity create a fresh palate finish.

Food pairing:

Pairs brilliantly with a wide range of light and savory foods thanks to its sharp acidity, lively effervescence, and crisp fruit profile. It is an ideal companion for fresh seafood like oysters, grilled shrimp, lobster, sushi, or traditional Spanish paella, as the wine's fine bubbles effortlessly slice through rich textures and enhance fresh flavors. Beyond seafood, its versatility shines alongside light tapas, salty snacks (like kettle chips or cured olives), creamy cheeses such as Manchego, and poultry dishes.
