Avi Ton 2021 - Feeling

Qualified Estate wine from the Avi Ton vineyard, planted with the Xarel·lo variety in 1945 by Ton Massana, 8th generation of the family on the estate. It is a vineyard over 78 years old with very low production and calcareous soil. This wine is a tribute to the father of the current owner, Eudald Massana and the grandfather of his children: this is the origin of the name.

Variety: Xarel·lo (old vine).
Terrain: Own organic farming vineyards located in Subirats. The grapes come from vines with very little production from vines planted in 1945.
DO Penedès.
Alcoholic degree: 12.5º

Elaboration

Maceration at 5ºC for 38-45 hours. Fermentation ends in new chestnut barrels. Rearing for 3 months in contact with their own mothers and where the Batonnage is carried out.

Tasting note

Pale golden color with bright shades.

On the nose, the floral aromas (almond blossom) are combined with those of ripe fruit (pineapple, quince, compote) and the specific aromas of the barrel (toast, vanilla, coffee).

It is a balanced wine with body and glyceric, unctuous and at the same time transmits a feeling of freshness. Tropical notes.
