This is why over twenty years ago we chose the privileged environment of Fransola, a historic estate located in one of the highest areas of Penedès, to plant one of our most renowned vineyards. Its cold nights and mild days provide an excellent climate for vine cultivation, offering the best Sauvignon Blanc grapes with which we produce this elegant and well-balanced wine. TERROIR Soil Deep clay-limestone soils, reddish in colour, with moderate drainage and high water retention capacity, allowing the development of the maximum aromatic expression of white wines, especially Sauvignon Blanc. Formed from Eocene (tertiary) clays. Weather conditions During 2024, the temperature followed an irregular cycle, being globally almost one degree above the average, but aligning with the usual average during the vegetative and ripening cycle. Precipitation was below average. Although the rains at the end of the vegetative and ripening cycle mitigated the deficit, there was a reduction in production.
