Origin:
Can Fontanals estate.
El Soi, organic viticulture, originally a Parellada vineyard planted in 1984 and later re-grafted with Malvasia of Sitges from the vineyard of L’Hospital de Sitges. Calcareous clayey soils that provide acidity and complexity to the wine.
Font de la Canya, organic viticulture, a plot of Xarel.lo planted in 1991, surrounded by forest that protects if from the sweltering summer heat, offering a perfect microclimate for the development of the vineyard, produces wines with structure and body.
Harvest:
We came from one of the poorest harvests of the last decades, from a year (2020) of much rain, as of December there was a radical change in terms of rainfalls, disappearing the rain completely. To the beginning of the harvest only 163 liters of rain. This drought and the moderate temperatures of spring favored an easy and relaxed agricultural year, the flowering of the different varieties was perfect. The harvest started normally, and we were surprised, we expected less quantity and more graduation due to the low rainfall, a year of sugar concentration and lower yield was expected, it was not like that. In summary, a very balanced harvest.
