Finding out whether this wine manages to capture the genuine essence of the Penedès in a glass is reason enough to drink it, taste it, smell it and end up discovering that yes: that xarello is the Penedès because the Penedès is also salinity, it is also height, it is also forest and it is also the aromatic complexity that Can Sumoi’s Xarel·lo awakens in the nose and the seductive electricity it transmits to the palate, where the Penedès becomes wide, becomes fresh and still with a memory of aniseed fennel on the nose, it becomes wonderfully Mediterranean.
