CLÀSSIC PENEDÈS - Parellada

Grapes from very old vines of the Parellada variety. Vines over 60 years old, located on our Baltana Vella estate, at 480m above sea level. These vines, planted on small sloping hillsides and with a fairly extreme organic cultivation, produce grapes with a high concentration of aromas and a fairly high alcohol content for a Parellada. For several years now, the estate has not been opened, thus avoiding excess production and balancing the vines, together with short pruning and good green pruning, we ensure that the grapes reach perfect ripening points.

Hand-picked grapes are transported 2 km to the winery in small trailers. We put it in the closed pneumatic press and press it at low pressure. Temperature controlled fermentation with selected yeasts. Aged for 2 months on fine lees in stainless steel tanks.

From this vineyard, where we also make Parellada, we have used part of it to make a Classic Penedès sparkling wine, partly to pay tribute to Font-Rubí's star variety.
