Winemaker Notes:
"The grapes for this wine come from small vineyards in the Alt Penedes region, where Xarel-lo and Malvasia de Stiges are grown using head training and regenerative farming techniques. These varietals are typically used for blending in the sparkling wine Cava, but the high acidity and late ripening of Malvasia de Stiges is gaining attention. The unique combination of calcareous soils, cool coastal influences, and warm Mediterranean sun create a distinct terroir for this region. While known for its sparkling wines, projects like this one are redefining the region by focusing on the grapes and terroir first, rather than wine styles. The backbone of this wine is provided by Xarel-lo, with its bright citrus notes and saline minerality, while Malvasia de Sitges adds texture and exotic fruit flavors."
