La Cimera del Xarel.lo
This tasting event is like a showcase of white wines made with Xarel.lo, which is an emblematic grape type from Penedes area.
Over 30 wineries present their wines at L'Ermita Santa Maria de Foix (Torrelles de Foix, Penedes).
Why I recommend?
I like this tasting event, because I can see a little map of wine producers and its wine style in Pendes;
Awarded wine producer/producers who only sell their wines at their cellar, grapes from Garraf natural park (calcareous soil)/beside Foix river (alluvial), grapes from top of the hill (350m)/basin of Penedes, fresh & young/oak aged, natural wine/standard wines.
The wine maker serve you their wines to explain what they aim.
I feel very special tasting Xarel.lo wines at its emblematic place and looking at Penedes basin.
When?
The last Monday of June.
