Parotet · 2022
Parotet is an ode to fruit; an ode to traditional grape varieties, the tantalizing red colour of wine, its soil and the freshness of Mediterranean mountain-lands. A homage to wines from another time. The wine is called Parotet after the word in Catalan for a small kind of dragonfly. Just like the insect, it is a graceful, agile, and elegant wine — a faithful image of the wonderful landscapes which saw its birth.

About the vineyard[+]
Ninety percent of the wine comes from a virtually extinct grape variety, Mandó, while another almost extinc variety, Arco, makes up the remaining ten. They blend perfectly to give body and shape to a wine which faces the sea from vineyards 600 metres up on the mountain slopes rooted in the sandy soil of this Valencian terroir.
