Clos Lentiscus Núria Cartoixà Vermell 2018

Description

Clos Lentiscus Núria Cartoixà Vermell is a sparkling wine made from a single varietal wine known as Cartoixà Vermell by the Clos Lentiscus winery in the Penedès DO.
These grapes are also called Xarello Rojo and come from Vinya Martina, planted in 1976 on calcareous sandy soils and following the principles of biodynamic agriculture.

Winemaking

The grapes are harvested by hand at the optimum point of ripeness in order to obtain the surprising complexity of fruity aromas that characterise this wine.
After the grapes are pressed, alcoholic fermentation begins with indigenous yeasts in 55-litre demijohns. However, as this wine is made using the ancestral method, fermentation is completed in the bottle, where it is left to settle for 12 months.
