Growing up, Alvaro remembers looking out his window at vineyards and after a career in IT as a software developer he quit in 2017 to return to his love - wine!

Starting with 500 bottles his first vintage, he remains true to making live wines with healthy grapes. The vineyards are grown biodynamically and worked by hand only. Harvest is in small boxes to preserve the fruit. The cellar is located in a typical Catalan country house 'Masia' where wine has been produced for over 400 years. Only native yeast and no intervention in the cellar. Very little to no sulfur is added.

This is a liter made especially for the importer.

Additional notes from Owen Kotler Selections:

"Like all drinkOKwines, this 100% Xarel-lo is made without additives and using only native yeast. Made near Barcelona, this Catalan white is crisp and dry with bright stone fruit notes and a lemony finish! A well-balanced white wine that pairs with everything from local oysters, halibut, black cod, plus all your favorite vegetable dishes".
