Sasso (2023) White

100% Xarello, certified biodyncamically farmed at 350m of altitude, in l’Alt Penedès Montserratí. A single young Xarello vineyard from 1995 called “La Torreta”, with loamy-clay soil, where the bedrock presses the fertile layer and facing southeast.

Grapes are manually harvested and placed in 10kg crates. The grapes are then carefully sorted in the cellar, destemmed and softly pressed extracting only the best quality must, with maceration in cement for a few days. Spontaneous fermentation with native yeasts begins in cement and then is transferred to old acacia barrels midfermentation with all of the lees. Before the next harvest the wine is decanted back into cement to rest before bottling.

Unfiltered, unfined and without any additions of any kind (zero/zero) and on a descending moon. Sasso is aged in bottle for one year before release. Around 2,500 bottles annual production.
