The purest expression of what Joan does with Xarel·lo — no flor, no oxidation, just the grape and the place speaking as clearly as possible. The flagship that started it all.
Xarel·lo • Penedès • Amphora and stainless steel • Biodynamic
Joan Rubió spent 15 years at Recaredo, rising to Technical Director and introducing biodynamic practices to one of Catalonia’s most celebrated Cava houses. In 2015 he launched Tiques on his family’s 9-hectare estate in Penedès to make the wines he’d always wanted to make. The Tiques is his core Xarel·lo: completely destemmed, 12 days of maceration in open stainless steel tanks with indigenous yeast fermentation in 500-litre barrels, then 5 weeks in red ceramic amphora and 6 months back in stainless steel. No sulphites added at any point.
Precise, mineral, and unmistakably Catalan.
