Freixenet Cordon Negro Brut Cava Sparkling Wine, 75cl

Product Information

This Cava company taps into a world-famous celebrity to be the face of its much-awaited Christmas TV commercial. Celebrities who have appeared in Freixenet's Christmas sparkling wine include Liza Minnelli (1977), Raquel Welch (1985), Paul Newman (1989), Antonio Banderas and Sharon Stone (1992), Kim Basinger (1993), Penélope Cruz (1994 and 2001), Alejandro Sanz (1998), Pierce Brosnan (2004), Demi Moore (2005) and Shakira (2010). [1] In 2018 Freixenet stopped having famous people in its commercials and changed its advertising strategy with the aim of deseasonalizing the consumption of cava and consolidating the international positioning of the brand focused on the celebration of life’s small and big moments, as well as maximizing the Mediterranean lifestyle through a global campaign. It’s simply a sparkling wine from Spain. For this review, specifically, I tasted the Freixenet (pronounced “fresh-eh-net”) Cordon Negro Brut. No particular vintage.

In the following decades Freixenet launches more modern and innovative products such as cava Elyssia in 2009, cava to drink on ice Freixenet ICE in 2016, Freixenet Prosecco DOC in 2017 or Freixenet Still Wines in 2021. In the glass, Freixenet Brut is light straw in color and as bubbly as you would expect for a sparkling wine.Freixenet is also the official cava of the MotoGP World Championship since 2003.

But, to be clear, Freixenet Brut is not Champagne because it’s not from the Champagne region of France. Nor is it considered a California Champagne like you might find Korbel to be.
