Description:
100% Xarel·lo from La Fusta, a single vineyard planted in 1985 and organically farmed in the Penedès. Hand-harvested in small boxes, the whole grapes are trodden by foot before being destemmed and given forty-eight hours of skin maceration. The wine is then aged for twelve months in French oak barrels, developing a rich, full-bodied texture while retaining the natural freshness of Xarel·lo.
Fresh and expressive, La Fusta opens with citrus aromas of lemon and tangerine alongside green apple, followed by a creamy, enveloping palate shaped by lees contact and a gentle mineral finish.
A vibrant yet textured expression of native Penedès Xarel·lo.
