Vol: 12%
Yield: 5.422 bottles
Soil: Calcareous clay soil
Part of the output of the Xarel·lo vines from the Font de Jui estate is used
• 1,97 ha
• Planted in 2007
• Cordon pruning
• Southeast orientation
Font Jui is a reflection of the history of the Gramona family, closely tied to this grape variety for decades. The grapes the wine is made with, in combination with its unique vinification, make it a very particular Xarel·lo that is expressive and nuanced.
This Mediterranean variety, originating in the Penedès region itself, is the white grape that contains the most resveratrol in the world. Resveratrol is an antioxidant that gives great structure and ageing potential to the wines made from this grape.
After passing over the sorting table, the grapes are pressed whole. We use only the free-run juice. The wine ferments in 300-litre French oak barrels, where it is also aged on the lees for three months. We use 33% new barrels and the rest are second and third-use barrels, to respect and preserve the grapes’ natural character as much as possible.
