Els Ecos

Vintage: 2021

Production: 1.142 bottles

Varieties: Carinyena and Malvasia

Winemaking: Harvest by hand. Cooling for 12 hours, selection of the grapes, maceration of the two varieties together for 15 days. Spontaneous fermentation, without sinking the cap, not only pumped over. Bleeding, no press is used. In amphora for 5 months and then in bottle.

Winemaker’s note: A very special elaboration, we value the terroir. Two varieties planted in the same soil. Touched by the same soil and cultivated equally. Simply a joint vinification that was obvious that we had to do. We are dazzled by the subtlety and delicacy of how it turned out. I don’t think we can do it every year.
