2022 'Blanc sense papers'

This Xarel-lo is born in the 'Fassina' vineyard (57 years old) in Sant Sebastià dels Gorgs and also includes grapes from the 'Molinet' vineyard (63 years old), also located in Sant Sebastià. The soils here are made up of sandy loam and calcareous clay. Four harvests were completed. Each of them is harvested by hand at different times depending on the evolution of the fruit. In this way, Ferran obtains four well differentiated grape profiles which contribute to different winemaking styles.

The first harvest was on 22 August, with grapes from the highest part of La Fassina vineyard. Pressed to stainless steel tank for fermentations, then aged in demijohns for 4 months. The second harvest was on 02 September, with grapes from the middle part of La Fassina, as well as all of the Molinet vineyard. These grapes were macerated for 24 hours, then pressed to stainless steel tank for fermentations, then aged in demijohns for 4 months. The third harvest was on 09 September, and was a small pick, from the middle part of La Fassina again. Pressed to stainless steel tank for fermentations, then aged in demijohns for 4 months. The fourth harvest was on 16 September, and was from the lower part of La Fassina. These grapes were de-stemmed, then macerated for three weeks. Pressed and then aged in concrete for 4 months. Blending occurred on 1st Feb 23, with 8% from the first harvest, 68% of the second harvest, 7% of the third harvest, and 17% of the fourth harvest. The idea is to have a wine with components of freshness, maturity, expression and structure. Not fined or filtered. 11.5% alc.
