Cisteller Xarel-lo 2023

Tasting Notes

From three plots of Xarel-lo, two on the family farm in El Sot and a third from the village of Massis del Garraf (still owned and farmed by Sergei and Jess.) All old vines on calcareous clay. Fermented naturally parcel by parcel using a mixture of steel, concrete, amphora, French and Hungarian oak until blending the following spring. This is beautiful, fresh, layed and complex. Wet stone, lemon sherbet and toasted almonds alongside a wild Mediterranean herbal twist. Xarel-lo is their largest volume wine, 5,000 bottles approx produced in normal years. - Importer Note
