FYI: Corpinnat is not cava; it is a designation for high-quality, organic sparkling wines produced by a group of producers who withdrew from the DO Cava due to disagreements over unsustainable business practices and low quality standards within the larger Cava D.O. Corpinnat wines must adhere to stricter rules than Cava, including using only hand-harvested, organic grapes, all wine being vinified at the estate, and meeting rigorous aging requirements.
Overview of the Wine
Agustí Torelló Sibill has realised what is undoubtedly a lifelong ambition: the establishment of a winery that embodies decades of learning and projects it into the future. A functional, aesthetic, and profoundly sustainable space, where every detail is designed to work with absolute respect for the landscape and to craft wines that clearly speak of Penedès.
With this new chapter, AT Roca takes a decisive and natural step by joining Corpinnat, the collective brand that brings together some of the most quality-focused, territory-conscious, and ecologically-minded wineries. Its inclusion reinforces the notion that Penedès has a unique viticultural heritage and that, when approached with rigour, sustainability, and honesty, the bubbles can become a true expression of identity.
In this context, AT Roca Reserva is born, a Corpinnat crafted from a classic and delightful blend: macabeo and xarel·lo. The grapes are sourced from over 35-year-old organic vineyards, where viticulture is practised with care, patience, and a profound respect for natural balance.
The production follows the traditional method, with a meticulous first fermentation and a second fermentation always in the bottle, where the bubbles form slowly to enhance finesse. Thereafter, the wine rests for 20 months on lees, refining, rounding out, and gaining complexity. Before entering the market, disgorgement is carried out without adding expedition liqueur, affirming its Brut Nature character and allowing the wine, unadorned, to speak for itself.
AT Roca today reflects the expertise of Agustí Torelló Sibill and the energy and sensitivity of his son, Agustí Torelló Roca. Following a lengthy career in the historic family business, this project is born with the excitement of starting anew and the tranquility of knowing exactly what is being done. A modern winery, a committed team, and a sparkling wine that illustrates why AT Roca fits so naturally within Corpinnat.
A project that breathes identity. A winery looking to the future. And a wine that celebrates Penedès in every bubble.

Tasting Notes
Clear, expressive, and elegant. Fruity aromas dominate, with notes of russet apple, pear, and fennel, set against a background of pastry and brioche. Fresh, mineral, salty, and persistent, with creamy, well-integrated carbonation.
92 Points - Wine Enthusiast
A discreet column of bubbles releases a bouquet of Seckel pear, vanilla bean and buttered brioche. This sparkling wine is equal parts refreshing and sophisticated, offering bright citrus flavors alongside notes of croissant, toasted almond and dried thyme. (2021)
