Codorníus

Codorníus is a term that may refer to multiple topics, but it is not widely used as a standalone name in major reference works. In many cases, it appears as a variant spelling or misspelling of Codorníu, a historic winery in Catalonia, Spain. The difference in accent and diacritical marks can lead to variations in transcription across languages and sources.

Codorníu, often rendered without the accent as Codorníu, Raventós, is one of Spain's oldest wine houses. The estate is based in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, in Catalonia, and dates back to the 16th century. It became a leading producer of cava, Spain's hallmark sparkling wine, employing the traditional method and developing export markets across Europe and beyond. The company preserves century-old cellars and is associated with a notable example of Catalan wine-house heritage architecture.

As a surname, Codorníu-related forms appear in historical records in Catalonia and neighboring regions. In modern usage, Codorníus may appear as a variant in documents or as a generic reference when discussing the Codorníu wine house, especially in non-Spanish languages or typographical contexts.

The primary references and widely recognized information pertain to Codorníu, the winery, rather than Codorníus as a distinct entity. For clarifying usage, sources often differentiate between Codorníu as a brand and Codorníus as a potential variant spelling or incidental reference.
