Production: Organic wine sourced from a single plot called " Finca El Corral del Gener" a vineyard of more than 70 years in age located in the area of Masabonés within the district of Baix Penedès and the province of Tarragona. At an altitude of 275 mt above the sea level and under a strong maritime influence, due to its proximity to the coast, just 10 km away, together with the calcareous soils, poor in organic matter, and the low yield producing vines, gives the grapes the excellent characteristics from this vineyard, which results into a 100% Terroir expression wines.
The cultivation of the vineyards is done under sustainable viticulture. The harvest is done manually followed by hand sorting of the grapes in the vineyard. The fermentation took place during 10 days in 200 ltr. Clay Amphora vases, followed by 5 months resting on its lees in stainless steel tanks. 2383 bottles produced.
Sicus Terrers Mediterranis is the Project of Eduard Pie, a young viticultor that belongs to the new generation of young wine makers, perfectionist, enthusiast, talented and most of all innovative and restless. Based in Bonastre a small village in the Baix Penedès in the province of Tarragona where the family owned winery has been growing vines for more than 100 years intended for the bulk wine market until a few year when Eduard took charge of the winery and renovated it in order to produce good quality wines. Today Eduard cultivates 18 acres of family owned and also rented vineyards, he works with indigenous varieties alone and his wines are organically grown and amphora fermented, some of which are buried in the vineyard. He uses small amounts of sulfur only at key stages.
Tasting Notes: Straw-yellow colour, aromas redolent of dry forest leaves and ripe white fruit flavours. With just the right level of acidity, balanced with a herbaceous touch. Fresh and long finish.
