Pale golden in color, clean and bright, with fine and persistent bubbles. On the nose, it shows
aromas of ripe white fruit, flowers, and dried fruits. On the palate, it is elegant and well
structured, with balanced acidity and a long, enveloping finish.

Origin:
Can Fontanals, a tribute to the artistic journey of our mother, Fina Via. A carefully selected collection of unique and historic vineyards from the estate: “Font de la Canya” (Xarel·lo, 1991), surrounded by forest, which softens the summer heat and creates an ideal microclimate for slow ripening; and “La Caseta” (Macabeu, 1987), located in a gentle hollow by the Torrente dels Gorgs, on clay-limestone soils with a loamy-silty texture, contributing minerality and freshness. A respectful, minimally interventionist approach to viticulture results in a wine that is authentic, elegant, and well-defined, suitable for extended aging.
Harvest:
We came from one of the scarcest harvests in recent decades, from a year (2020) of a lot of rain, starting in December there was a radical change in terms of rainfall, these disappearing completely, until the beginning of the harvest only 163,-lts fell. This drought and the moder ate spring temperatures made for an easy and relaxed agricultural year. The flowering of the different varieties was perfect. The harvest started normally and surprised us; due to the low rainfall, a year of sugar concentration and a drop in yield was expected, but this was not the case. In short, healthy and very balanced harvest
