December 2022 Staff Picks: 

“In addition to being a deliciously satisfying, dry, all purpose sparkling, this producer is leading the way for quality in Penedes. Outside of wine, when Russia invaded Ukraine, Pepe Raventos loaded up his car with medical supplies and drove to Ukraine to help. While there, he helped a family flee the destruction by driving them back to Spain with him. A true hero!” - Lauren McPhate

 A firm backbone of Meyer lemon peel acidity frames this vivid sparkler, enmeshed with rich notes of lightly charred toast and smoked almond, backed by flavors of ripe white cherry and peach fruit. Hints of thyme and anise play on the finish. Xarel-lo, Macabeo, Parellada and Malvasia de Sitges.
