The Kripta winery, owned by the Torelló Sibill family of San Sadurní de Anoia, has just announced that it is leaving the Cava DO to join the Corpinnat brand, adding its sixteenth producer to its ranks. "We were deeply rooted in Cava from the beginning, but in recent years the designation of origin has been drifting in a way that no longer identifies us, and Corpinnat is the natural path we want to follow," explained siblings Gemma and Àlex Torelló Sibill on the same morning they notified the Cava Regulatory Council of their departure. "We've timed it to coincide with the end of the quarter, when we've already filed our quarterly declarations, so we'll do this upcoming harvest as Corpinnat," they say.
