DO Penedès

100% Macabeo

Technical sheet

Tasting Notes

Displays terpene and licorice notes with subtle hints of wood, alongside aromas of apricot, pineapple and banana, complemented by sweet tropical fruit nuances.

On the palate it is concentrated and full-bodied, with intense retronasal aromas, notes of passion fruit and guava, a touch of hops, and a pleasant, sweet and persistent finish.

Fermentation with skins (“brisat”) and indigenous yeasts

After manual destemming, the must remains in contact with skins, pulp and seeds throughout fermentation, enhancing aromatic complexity.

Chestnut barrel ageing

Six months in lightly toasted chestnut barrels allow gentle micro-oxygenation and add refined, elegant notes that complement — without overpowering — the variety.

Spontaneous malolactic fermentation

Adds balance and creaminess.
