Characteristics of the vineyard

Situated in the central part of the Sumarroca estate, in the town of Sant Sadurní d'Anoia. Well exposed to the influence of dry inland winds and sea breezes from the Mediterranean Sea alleviated by the effect of the coastal range which stops the humidity. The soil is calcareous, shallow with layers of sedimentary based gravel and silt making the drainage very easy and a fertile loam top layer.

Tasting notes

Very intense and complex aroma. A mix of fruity notes of varietal chardonnay with light, varietal roasts and all on a bed of notes from being aged in barrels. The palate is very structured and tasty, dominated by the fruitiness of the wine with a very interesting vanilla scent. In the mouth it’s refreshing and mineral originating from the pinot which completes the blend.

Production

The chardonnay is fermented in new 225 litre barrels of fine grain French oak. Once the fermentation has finished the wine is aged in barrels for up to three months making light batonnage to add more complexity to the wine. Fermentation takes place at a controlled temperature of 16 ° C. Aged in stacks for a minimum of 36 months.
