Notes
Why this Xarel·lo and not another wine?
Because we firmly believe that it is our most noble variety. More than any other one allows us to express our terroir like Xarel·lo does.
We also think that it is the white autochthonous variety with the highest aging potential: High alcohol content, good acidity and total climate adaptation.
We also defend Xarel·lo as a matter of tradition. With Pardas Pur Xarel·lo we wanted to express our most personal vision from a current perspective of a wine that was humbly made in the past by almost every viticulturist in their farmhouses in our territory.
Our Pardas Pur Xarel·lo was made with the conviction that the Xarel·lo grape variety has all the characteristics and the potential for becoming a great wine for aging, and that the future lies in valuing native varieties.
A distinct and authentic wine, a clear reflection of our soils and a fair viticulture.
