Can Feixes Penedès Blanco Selecció (75cl, 12%)

A certified organic white wine from Penedès, Spain, bottled at 12% ABV in a 750ml bottle. The blend is 40% Parellada, 29% Macabeo, 18% Xarel-lo, 8% Chardonnay and 5% Malvasia de Sitges. Huguet de Can Feixes farms certified organic vineyards in high-altitude, gravelly mountain soils. Berries are hand-selected in the vineyard and at a sorting table, gently processed in a pneumatic press, then fermented in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The wine rests on its fine lees in tank until bottling. The nose shows lemon oil, ripe apple, melon, apricot and white flowers. The palate brings lime, pineapple, melon, wet stone, stony minerality and a subtle waxy fullness from Malvasia de Sitges. The finish is zesty and dry, with mineral salinity and lime zest.
