Codorníu is a Group in continuous innovation and evolution. Known above all for its cavas (although it also produces still wines outside and within Catalonia), it is one of the largest producers of cavas in volume in Spain.
Its original winery known as La Catedral del Cava, as well as its champagnes make up a masterpiece of Catalan modernism and were declared a National Artistic Historical Monument in 1976. Codorníu is still a family business, in which the Raventós family continues to make business decisions and continues involved in the development of their wines that have become true icons of class and distinction.
