Rare, precise Sumoll from an 80-year-old single parcel in Alt Penedès — three different clones of the same variety, co-harvested on the same day, and made into one of the most quietly compelling reds from the region. 1,200 bottles.
Sumoll • Alt Penedès red • Single parcel • 1,200 bottles
Agustí Costa and Paula Sandoval started Cal Xurriu in 2018 with a clear purpose: rescue forgotten micro-plots across Alt Penedès that the Cava industry had abandoned. Lo Primer — "the first" — comes from their most storied parcel: clay and limestone soils scattered with river pebbles, 80-year-old Sumoll vines carrying three distinct clonal types in the same vineyard. Carbonic maceration for seven days, then 50% foot-stomped, gently pressed, racked after malolactic fermentation and left to rest in stainless steel on static lees for 10 months before bottling.
Sumoll is a near-extinct Catalan variety and this is as good as it gets.
