Description
‘Ikigall’ is an aromatic, organic white blend of Xarel-lo (85%), Malvasia de Sitges (10%) and Muscat (5%) from Penedès. The vineyards are situated at an altitude of 160 metres above sea level with a mixture of silty loam and sandy soils. The vines are just over sixty years old and are managed organically. It is fermented in stainless steel and spends four months on fine lees. This is a fragrant wine with subtle orange blossom and fennel accents, offset by a crisp, saline palate.
