About this product
A benchmark dry Xarel-lo from high-altitude limestone soils on the Gran Caus plateau — a testament to the indigenous Catalan variety's capacity for serious white wine beyond Cava. Fermented with indigenous yeasts in old Burgundy barrels, the wine shows white peach, almonds, wild herbs, limestone mineral, and a fresh salinity that distinguishes Penedès coastal limestone from its inland counterparts. One of the most compelling arguments for Xarel-lo as a world-class variety.
