Producer Notes
The original “garage” winemakers in Catalonia, Irene Alemany and Laurent Corrio have been challenging the traditional perception of Penedès wines from the get-go. The grapes (Xarel·lo for the whites and Cabernet, Merlot and Cariñena for the reds) are grown using the biodynamic calendar and the wines are neither filtered nor clarified. The couple are also experimenting with Sumoll, the local red grape, well saught after by the young winemakers of the area. The Alemany i Corrio red wines benefit hugely from ageing and Sot le Frek can really come into its own 10 years after vintage.
