3 WORD REVIEW: HONEYSUCKLE, PEACHES, PINEAPPLE
Try this if you enjoy: New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc
Pale and bright in colour with greenish tones. The nose is scented and fruity with aromas of white flowers, peaches and honeysuckle. The palate is fruity but dry. Balanced and fresh, with a honeyed touch. Fine and elegant.
Loxarel Winery is located on Can Mayol Estate, in Vilobí del Penedès, a 50-hectare organic winery located an hour south west of Barcelona. The business was founded in the 1930's and today is run by 4th generation winemaker, Josep Mitjans alongside his wife Teresa. Throughout its long viticultural history, the Mitjans have always worked hard to attain maximum quality in the wines and cavas they produce, taking meticulous care of the vineyards on the estate.
DO Penedès is divided into three distinct areas: the Upper Penedès (next to the pre-coastal mountain range), the Maritime Penedès (near the sea and the mountains) and the Central Penedès (between the two areas). This terrain gives the Penedès a wide variety of microclimates, resulting from the proximity to the coastline. The climate is typically Mediterranean.
