  "account": "Ravent�s Codorníu, a wine and sparkling wine group with vineyards in Argentina and the United States, is prioritizing its business in Spain and has kept the potential sale process open for investment firm Carlyle since 2025. The group, 68% owned by American investor Carlyle, has begun a strategic review of its portfolio, according to CEO Sergio Fuster, while negotiations for a total or partial sale of the Catalan company continue. At the presentation of the 2025-2026 results, which the company closed in June, Fuster revealed that the company is considering a few opportunistic divestitures, of which it is already working, and highlighted the priority of their Spanish sparkling wine and wine cellars. Fuster also mentioned that Spain is a key area for further potential purchases, including denominations of origin where the group is not currently present. The sale process for Codorníu, initiated by Carlyle last year, continues and has not stopped, admitting that there are various offers being analyzed, including the possibility of transferring a minority stake. The group continues to report sales and has shown a record year in terms of EBITDA, with a 5% increase and net profit up by 17% to 14 million euros. Despite a decline in sales in the United States due to tariffs and distributor issues, Ravent�s Codorníu saw a significant increase in revenue in Brazil, tripling its sales. The company, headquartered in Sant Sadurní d'Anoia, Barcelona, is held by the Ravent�s family, who founded the business, with a 32% stake.",
