Sumoll is having a Renaissance moment in Catalunya, thanks to a small group of winemakers like Ramon Parera and Jordi Arnan from Celler Pardas, Ramon and Nuria from Clos Lentiscus, Pepe Raventos, Pares Balta, Partida Creus, Els Jelipins, and Ruben Parera from Finca Parera (to name a few!). These growers are trying to showcase the potential of this once nearly extinct, old-school Catalan varietial. Sumoll is not an easy grape to work with and is not very productive, and as a result it has largely disappeared from the area, but it's making a comeback! This is one of the most elegant and silky Sumolls we've tried in a while. Ruben employs 1/3 whole clusters, with 2/3 destemmed grapes, with an infusion-style maceration (keeping the cap wet without pumping over or pushing down), and partial aging in clay. A lovely wine that shows red fruit and some Mediterranean herbs on the nose and on the palate, with nice acidity and a long finish. Light/medium bodied and best served with a very light chill.
