Can Feixes Selecció Blanc 2025

Can Feixes Selecció Blanc comes from Huguet de Can Feixes in D.O. Penedès, in Catalonia. It is a blend led by Parellada at 49 percent, with Macabeo at 28 percent, Chardonnay at 17 percent and a small share of Malvásia de Sitges at 6 percent. The grapes are grown on the winery's own Finca Can Feixes, a hillside estate at around 400 metres farmed organically and certified by the regional ecological board. Penedès combines a Mediterranean base with cooling from the coastal hills, and this elevated, well drained site holds acidity and freshness. Parellada, a local variety picked late for its perfume and crispness, sets the tone, Macabeo adds orchard fruit and body, Chardonnay lends weight and a stonefruit note, and Malvásia contributes aromatic lift. Made in a fresh, young style with the fruit protected in the cellar, the wine keeps its primary character bright. Expect a pale colour with green tints, a nose of green apple, pear and citrus with white flowers and a faint almond note, and a dry, light to medium bodied palate with clean acidity and a crisp, mineral finish. Serve well chilled at 8 to 10 degrees. It is a fine aperitif and a match for lighter fish and poultry.
