2022 Entre Vinyes Oniric ‘Brisat’ Xarel.lo Vermell

$47.00
/
Tax included.

Varietal: Xarel.lo Vermell
Region: Penedès, SP
Winemaker: Maria Barrena + Josep Tort

The Spanish Xarel.lo (pronounced sha-rel-lo) grape is traditionally used in the production of Cava but it’s red-skinned cousin takes centre stage here with a delightful wine made using the “Brisat” process, a Catalan term meaning extended maceration. Extra time on skins allows for greater extraction of natural flavours, aromas and tannins and minimal intervention thereafter means what goes into the glass expresses exactly what came off the vine. Flavours of spiced apple and fennel seed abound with just enough acidity to keep things in balance. We’ll be drinking this all summer long with goats cheese or brie with a drizzle of honey.
