VINOMI
Xarel·lo and red Xarel·lo, two similar but not identical grape varieties, give an unique personality to this wine with fruity aroma, intensity in the mouth, and with a dry but refreshing finish. A new look to the classic Penedès white wine.
The red Xarel.lo is a genetic mutation of the Xarel.lo. It is a practically extinct variety, which in the Penedès is found mainly in the central part, in the triangle formed by the municipalities of Vilobí, Granada and Les Cabanyes. It has a pink and thicker skin, which if harvested when well-ripened gives it greater aromatic complexity.

Viticulture
Vinification
Manual harvest. Short cold pellicular maceration to extract the aromas from the skins, above all from the red xarel.lo. Static settling of the flower must at 16 °C and alcoholic fermentation in stainless steel tanks. Aged on the fine lees for four months with periodic beating. Bottled in March.
Tasting note
Penetrating and delicate aromas: tropical fruity notes provided by red Xarel.lo (banana, pineapple), floral notes (orange blossom), citrus notes (grapefruit), on a background of Mediterranean shrub (fennel). Intense mouth with a fresh lingering finish.
