Tasting Notes

Medium aromatics of cherry, plum and crushed rocks. The palate is medium bodied with similar notes as the aromas, the wine is charming with medium acidity and dusty tannins. It is a great wine to sample if you love pinot noir. 

WINE INFORMATION

Celler Pardas started when two growers from Penedès, Ramon Parera and Jordi Arnan, acquired an old estate called Can Comas in Alt Penedès, close to Sant Sadurni d’Anoia. The property surrounds an old medieval farm and spans 30 hectares of forest and other crops (mainly cereal) as well as the local grape varieties—Sumoll and Xarel-lo—that Ramon and Jordi planted for their wines. The other source of fruit for the wines come from two ancient plots further north, where they own old vines of Sumoll, Xarel-lo and Malvasía de Sitges; Ramon calls this fascinating local strain of Malvasía, an incredibly acidic grape notoriously difficult to vinify, the “Riesling of the Mediterranean”.

They manage the forest surrounding the vineyards as well as the land bordering them to create a whole agrarian ecosystem and live in the property. Many biodynamic principles are followed: the vines are dry-farmed, and the clay-limestone rich soils are not ploughed to avoid erosion and foster the micro-biology of the place. They regularly use ground vegetation, and no synthetic products nor pesticides are utilized. Their work is certified organic.

This wine is made from organically-grown grapes in three different parcels, the oldest of which was planted 70 years ago. The vineyards sit on clay and chalky soils. It is fermented in concrete tanks fed by gravity, 50% whole-cluster.
