Clos Lentiscus Cric Cric White 2018

Penedès, Catalunya (Catalonia Cataluña), SpainFrom the biodynamic and biodiverse world of Penedès' Clos Lentiscus, in Catalonia, this natural / organic / biodynamic xarel.lo is from 42 year old vines rooted in the calcareous sandy soils of La Ribetana vineyard. After a native ferment in stainless, this rested there over the winter and headed direct to bottle in the spring, with no additions or deletions. Meadow herbs, white flowers, marcona almond, green apple, lime pith run the length of this sleek palate, lit with a limestone shimmer underneath, finishing with ample salinity. This smashable white is smartly packaged in 1L format; you'll be thankful.Tasted: 10 January 2022Tasted by: Treve RingPrices:
