Formerly known as Finca Viladellops Xarel·lo, the terroir-driven white wine Finca Viladellops Selecció Tres Xarel·los is produced from a blend of 70% Xarel·lo and 30% Xarel·lo Vermell, a pink-skinned mutation of the former with a refined aromatic profile.
The grapes are sourced from three organically grown parcels planted with 20 to over 50-year-old vines. They vineyards are located in the Garraf mountain range, a region at a 20-minute driving distance from Barcelona.
A subzone of DO Penedès, the soils of the Garraf mountain range have an abundance of lime nodules and marine fossils. These elements impart a nicely mineral, truly distinctive character to this Spanish white wine.
Harvested by hand and meticulously selected, the grapes were cold-soaked and vinified with the stems. Alcoholic fermentation was carried out in oak barrels, and then this white wine from Penedès was aged on lees for 8 months with periodic stirrings.
After that, Finca Viladellops Selecció Tres Xarel·lo 2023 was blended and aged for a further months on lees in stainless steel tanks before being bottled.
