Do you want to know what I find extremely chic? Isn't it obvious? Xic is made with Xarel-lo grapes, grown organically on calcareous-clay soils, caressed by cooling Mediterranean breezes. Easy, breezy stainless steel ferment that makes it crisp and refreshing. Lime, peach, apricot, a fun, viscous Mediterranean herby thing.
Celler Kripta used to be Agustí Torelló Mata, one of the great estates of Penedès. In July 2025, they made a big move and left the Cava appellation behind and joined Corpinnat, the collective of growers committed to making sparkling wine the old way. Although this is their still wine!
Drink it with seafood or with nothing at all.
