Thirst-quenching citrus is matched with the textural body that time on skins -‘Brisat’- and aging in old chestnut barrel brings to the party. There’s a complex aroma, with little floral notes of summer flowers wafting through. Find out more.
About the Wine
A lighter touch with this native Penedès varietal. Known for making spicy, rustic reds, here we have something a little more lifted and elegant. From another small parcel just over half a hectare in size, the destemmed grapes gently macerate for just four days before being pressed off to rest in steel for 8 months before bottling.
Light-bodied, with barely-there tannins, sour cherry, tart raspberry and mediterranean herbs and spices. The cleansing acidity has piquancy and the fruit a freshly-picked crunch to it, making this luminous wine and ideal candidate to serve with a brisk chill alongside a smoky romesco de piex of red fish and mussels. From a production of 2000 bottles.
About Vinyes Singulars
Ignasi and his family farm 120 hectares of land in Penedes, just on the south side of Barcelona. 40 hectares is used for vines whilst they also grow cereal crops, olive trees and vegetables on the rest. Ignasi’s farm has been in the family for generations, and they combine both a beloved heritage with innovation. This estate is big to us here at Wayward, but it is managed without adding chemicals to the land, preserving and improving the whole ecosystem. Impressive stuff. These beliefs follow through to their winemaking, with no additional sulphites and with no filtration in the cellar, they are producing wine that speaks of their grapes, vintage, and terroir. We are confident that the past generations would approve of Ignasi’s natural winemaking techniques; or what they would have simply called in simpler times, ‘winemaking’.
