Product Description
Details

The wine Ratpenat is a minimal intervention Spanish white wine from DO Penedès made by Celler Credo, the still wine brand of famed sparkling wine producer Caves Recaredo.

This varietal white wine from Penedès is sourced from a 2-hectare Macabeo vineyard planted with 30- year-old vines and composed of slate and quartz soils, a type that is extremely rare in the Penedès region. Besides being certified organic, the vineyard is managed following the guidelines of biodynamic farming.

The grapes were sponteneously fermented in stainless steel tanks. After that, the white wine Ratpenat 2021 was kept for 1 month in used oak barrels.

It is worth mentioning that this vegan white wine has a very low sulfite content.

Appearance

The white wine Ratpenat is deep straw with some greenish reflections.

Nose

This varietal single vineyard Macabeo carries aromas of white pear, honey, chamomile and aniseed, with deep mineral undertones of slate and flint.

Palate

Smooth textured and fresh, showing the purity and precision common to all Celler Credo-Recaredo wines, with a balanced acidity, a saline note and a long finish reminiscent of fennel, wet stones and ripe white fruit.

Our personal opinion

One of the best varietal Macabeos available on the market, the wine Ratpenat 2021 is subtle and exquisite.
