This fascinating Spanish red wine of the Can Serra dels Exibis Viticultors winery proves that the long recovery process of Catalonia’s rich heritage of indigenous grapes has come of age.
Indeed, Exibis La Baula is a blend made from 50% Sumoll and 50% Mandó, two red varieties native to Catalonia that you will hardly find anywhere else in the world.
The grapes come from vineyards planted in clay-limestone soils at an altitude of 500 metres above sea level near the town of Navàs, within DO Pla de Bages. The area has a Mediterranean-Continental climate, and the vines are farmed following the guidelines of biodynamic agriculture.
Picked up by hand, the grapes were refrigerated for a whole night, and subsequently destemmed and fermented in open tanks at a temperature of 25ºC, with several punch-downs, but no pump-overs, during the process. After a 5 day maceration, Exibis La Baula 2019 was aged for 12 months in 3rd year French oak barrels.
Aerate this red wine from Pla de Bages at the very least 30 minutes before drinking.
