Xarello, Penedes, Catalonia, Spain | Lively, like the littlest sibling who’s always cannonballing onto your bed in the morning, surprise! Time to wake up your eyeballs! Young, visionary winemaker Ferran Lacruz has been organically farming his 8ha of land, in the small village of Sant Marti Sarroca, since 2018. Made from 56 year old vines, grown on calcareous-limestone soils that punch an oceanic, minerality-shaped-hole straight through all of Ferran’s wines. Here, grapes are hand harvested at three different times as the individual bunches of fruit ripen. The first harvest (65%) is fermented in stainless steel, second harvest (25%) is macerated before fermentation, pressed to stainless steel for fermentation, then both are aged 3-4 moths in demijohn. The third harvest (10%) is fermented on the skins for 3 weeks, and then aged for 4 months in a 500 litre oak barrel. Like a bedside breakfast platter in heaven – white peach fritters, fresh shucked oysters, juiced orange grove, white lilac honey & salted Fuji apple slices. Enjoy with brunch because 11 am here is 5 pm in Spain & it just makes sense.

Xarel-lo, Penedes, Catalonia, Spain | A lucky go-getter of a Xarello, destined for great things, and working tirelessly to get there. New & exciting winemaker Ferran Lacruz has been farming organically (and with biodynamic practices) with as little intervention as possible since 2018, trying to do justice to his beloved hometown grapes. A natural winery that wants to be out of any appellation of origin or regulation, so as to not have any barriers to his creativity or his grapes potential. Harvested from 49 year old vines grown on mineral rich, calcareous soils that bestow a pretty, oceanic air to the wine. Fermented with their skins in stainless steel for 3 weeks, Ferran takes care that the skins are always submerged so they do not oxygenate or extract too harsh of tannins into this delicate orange wine. Lively acid, like a bunny hopping around playing the lute alongside preserved lemons + their brine, tangerine slices, gravel knee scrape, pear popsicles & dried dragonfruit. Drink with mushroom fried rice, a runny egg and Interactions of Colour by Josef Albers.
