Xarello is the soul grape of Catalonia the structural heart of Cava and, increasingly, a serious still wine in its own right. Vins Ravents, the still-wine label of one of Peneds’s most storied families, sources this bottling from a single parcel called Vinya del Noguer. Farmed on the family estate, it’s a chance to see what Xarello can do when it isn’t bound for bubbles: textured, savory, mineral, and built for the table. A great introduction to a grape that deserves the spotlight.
